Using the Database

Reading the Data

Rereading the Current Record

The DBGET library procedure allows you to read the entry from the most recently accessed

record again. You may want to do this in a program that has unlocked the data entry and

locked it again and needs to check if the contents of the current entry have been changed.

Note that if a DBFIND procedure call has been made, the current record is zero and a

request to reread the entry causes DBGET to return an exceptional condition indicating that

the current record contains no entry. Refer to table 5-13 for more information on DBGET

return status values.
