I recall (but can not find the reference) that there might
be an issue implementing bookmarks with DBISAM and Delphi XE.

Anyone able to jog my memory as I'm having troubles with returning
to a saved bookmark and I'm not sure if it's my code or the differences
inherent in Delphi XE

Thanks,

Jon,

Due to the way that strings are handled in Delphi XE, make certain that
you use TBookmark instead of TBookmarkStr. Here is some code from a DXE
coded application.

procedure TfrmMain.PrintCurrentLineupClick(Sender: TObject);
var BM: TBookmark;
begin
//Bookmark the record
BM := dmData.tblLineup.Bookmark;
//Do something else with the records ...
//Return to the bookmarked record
dmData.tblLineup.Bookmark := BM;
end;

HTH...

Jan,

I was using tBookmark not tBookmatkstr but was using
the wrong way to get back.

Thanks for the tip.
