<DIV><FONT size=2>I have two files. The second file is linked to the first. I'm
trying to check if I am on a valid record when I open the second file. If
I'm on a valid record, I return the correct record number with recno.
If not I get 21474836. Where does this number come from? The
problem is that if I try and read an "invalid" record I get "Invalid variant
type conversion." Is there a better way to find out if I am on a valid
record?</FONT></DIV>
