Browse lookup

[Richard Kreiss]

Writing an cash application routine which uses a browse lookup to list all
open transactions.  The use highlights the item to be paid, presses <P> to
apply the payment amount.

My problem is that some payments to be applied are larger than the current
amount due and I want to apply the balance to the next transaction.

Since I use a drop with the browse so paid items are not listed, I added
code which would read into an array the record #'s of the transactions
selected.  The maximum number of open items should be no more than 24.

The array was filled with the record #'s but they were not in the sequence
of the displayed transactions.  What should have been the number 4 item was
actually in the 11th element of the array.

Short of doing a lookup next using the browse index for sequencing, does
anyone have a better idea of how to approach this?

The may be a Ken question, is there a way to access the system array that
hold the record numbers of the records in the browse display window?
