RE: What record return from getNewRecord() ??

        Thank You Frances & David,
        I create PF with default value..and getNewRecord() actualy return
the default value you set on the PF field.
        I can put an anology that  the getNewRecord() actualy give (or get)
you a new record object slot(bucket), which we fill the slot with data and
put it on file.

        Thank you very much.

        regards,
        Ivan
