Well, this doesn't affect the "pig" code... that works great... and so many
of you are modifying it now... it's making my head spin. :-) But, if you
changed the code I showed to browse the *current* file, it turned up a bug
in filePro 5.0.14. I posted 3 workarounds earlier... here is a 4th. Get the
next version!! :-) Ken has tested the problem and he says a fix they put in
_after_ the release of 5.0.14 does work on the exhibited problem. Great
news. I don't mind workarounds, but fixes are better. Thanks Ken. (and
thanks for the original encouragement on the Pig in a Poke... It was Ken I
called to ask, "Someone has contacted me to write a special routine for
them... before I beat my head against the wall trying... is it possible the
way I'm conceiving it?" He told me there was no reason why it couldn't
work... so I took the 4 Advil and went to work... by the end of the night...
a pig was born. :-) So thanks Ken. By the way, Scott Nelson keeps cracking
us all up in the FP Room saying that the "pig" is absolutely NOT the right
name for this thing. He suggests super-browse, and some others, but the one
I like best from him was Wonder Browse. :-) Very good... but I'm afraid the
"pig" has latched on and that is its fated name forever.
Ken's second note follows...

Take a demo ride on the "pig". You'll be happy you did. There is a movie
that demonstrates it thoroughly at www.valar.com/single

It certainly looks like it was the same problem that was fixed, since
it fails on .14 but not .14K3.
