Return to current record after scripted Find step

[Matthew F]

Someone might have a simpler solution to the common problem of returning to the current record after performing a scripted find step.

Here's my solution:

1. The dB must have two fields, a unique match field such as a serial number (RecordID), and a global field (gNum)

2. Create the relationship: "ReturnID" defined by matching fields "gNum=::RecordID" in the current dB.

3. Perform the following steps in the find script:

Set Field["gNum", "RecordID"]

Perform Find [Restore, Replace Found Set]

# or whatever find parameters you need

Go to Related Record ["ReturnID"]

Any easier ideas?
