FUNCTION SEARCHME()
Short:
------
SEARCHME() Search a DBF with user-specified criteria
Returns:
--------
<bSearch> -> The code block used to do the search
Syntax:
-------
SEARCHME([aField,aFieldTypes,aFieldLengths],[aFieldDesc])
Description:
------------
Searches the current dbf with criteria given
by the user.
for : Field Contents Match
Query match --->> calls QUERY()
End of file
Beginning of File
Deleted Records
Memo contents
On subsequent calls, if the previous search resulted
in a FOUND(), a box asking "Continue..", "New Search" will pop up.
If CONTINUE is selected, a continuation of the last search is
done.
Three arrays may be passed for FIELDS [aFields],
FIELD TYPES [aFieldTypes], and FIELD LENGTHS [aFieldLengths].
An additional (optional) array of field descriptions may be passed
Default is all fields, field names as descriptions.
Searchme() actually returns the code block used to do the
search. Normally you would want to ignore this. I use it in
TAGIT() - if the code block is not NIL, then I can 'tag all
matching' with it.
