From a record, referencing the next / previous records in the current set

Hi,

Is there a way to reference the next / previous record in a found set from a given record?

For example, I have a database of books. On the form, I have forward and back arrows to take you to the next / previous book record. I'd like to have writing below the arrows that says something like "Backward to 'Grapes of Wrath'" and "Forward to 'Of Mice and Men'"

Any NextRecord(FieldName) type function?

Thanks!

Andrew

Yes, there is the GetNthRecord() function which could probably be persuaded to do what you want.

But it's a new feature in FMP 8.
