Hello,
Can anyone tell me what the difference is between DBSKIP() and SKIP, between DBGOTOP() and GO TOP, between DBAPPEND() and APPEND, ... ?
I have always used SKIP, GO TOP, APPEND, ... and I never got any problem with them.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Michel,
Those commands get preprocessed into their respectives functions calls. You may review std.ch to see how the commands get translated into their functions calls.
So in fact it is the same to use the command or the function. In case that you need to call them from a codeblock, then you will have to use the function call as the command can't be used there.
use stock new exclusive
use inv new exclusive
copy inv to tmp123
select stock
? desc
inv->(dbSkip())
("tmp123")->(dbSkip())
tmp123->(dbSkip())
? descAntonio,
Hua,
Thanks a lot for your answers.
