My situation from my original question ("The story you are about to see
is true; only the names have been changed, to protect the innocent") is,
for reference:
Got a couple of PFs. Call them FOO and BAR.field SPAM (which is the unique key of logical FOO_1
FOO is uniquely keyed on fields HAM and EGGS, and contains additional
record in BAR to a record in FOO. And it also has a field, BLORB, which is
BAR has a field, FROTZ, the first key on logical BAR_1, that ties every
a date.
And I'm trying to check the latest BLORB for any given HAM. Not just for
one HAM, but for all possible HAMs.
Turns out (to my surprise) that just going through all the FOO records
for a given HAM value, and checking a logical of BAR by FROTZ and
descending BLORB, does the job, at a more than reasonable speed, even
repeating it for all possible HAMs.
