That won't keep you on the same detail record unless that field
in the lookup record differs from any like field in the previous
lookup records.

Consider if you're looking up line items and the invoice number
is 111111 and there are 20 or 30 line items.  When you do the
lookup again you're going to go to the first one in the index.
