-----------------------------------------------------------

For all those adventurers that have played around and made
fleeting progress, plodding step by step, with little for no
help, the enclosed BTRTEST.EXE and source Visual Basic program
may help you eliminate some of the toil I went through.

The sample EMPMSTS.DAT (and EMPMSTS.DSC) files use a segmented
key (key 1) made up of LastName plus FirstName in a sample 
Employee Master File.

When you start to tackle mutli-file btrieve program, may I suggest 
that use a naming convention like DBEmpMst for the EmpMst file
data buffer and PBEmpMst for the corresponding Position Block.

Good Luck.
