Associated fields and @AF

Here is an output processing I'm running:

  if: d) co "O"
Then: msgbox "AF="<@af

Now, as I read it in the filePro manual, @af should should tell me what
field in the associated group contains the value of "O".  i.e. If O is the
value of the second field in the associated group d), then @AF should be 2.

When I run this processing against my table, it find records that contain
the value "O" somewhere in the group, but @AF is always equal to 1.

Here's what the online manual says:

-----
If you have 32 associated fields and you do a search of that group and find
a match, the @AF field will contain the occurrence number. If it was the
fifth one in the associated group, then @AF will be "5".

Am I misunderstanding what's going here?

Thanks,
