FOUND()


Syntax:     FOUND()

Purpose:    To determine if the previous search operation using FIND,
            LOCATE/CONTINUE, or SEEK succeeded.

Returns:    A logical value.

            FOUND() returns true (.T.) if the last search command was
            successful.

            Each work area has a FOUND() flag.  This means that if one
            work area has a RELATION SET to a child work area, querying
            FOUND() in the child returns true (.T.) if there is a match.

            All record movement commands other than search commands
            reset FOUND() to false (.F.).

            If SOFTSEEK is ON, FOUND() returns false (.F.) when there is
            not a match for a SEEK or FIND.

Usage:      FOUND() is useful for determining whether a search of a
            database file is successful before performing the next step
            in a program.

Library:    CLIPPER.LIB
