[<<Previous Entry] [^^Up^^] [Next Entry>>] [Menu] [About The Guide]
EOF()
Syntax: EOF()
Purpose: To determine if an attempt has been made to move the record
pointer past the end of the current database file.
Returns: EOF() returns true (.T.) when you attempt to move the record
pointer beyond the last logical record. When EOF() becomes
true (.T.), the record pointer is positioned to LASTREC() +
1. This is the case whether or not an active FILTER is SET
or DELETED is ON. Any further attempt to move the record
pointer past LASTREC() + 1 returns the same result without
error. If the current database file contains no records,
EOF() returns true (.T.).
Usage: EOF() is used as a boundary condition test in any
application where you are moving the record pointer downward
through a database file.
Library: CLIPPER.LIB
