Hello everybody,

        I have a Delphi application that accesses an Interbase v3.3f
Server Database.  Occasionally, my application does a FindKey, but does not return the
data from the table.  I have made sure that the information in the FindKey statement
is correct for the index that I am using at the time of the FindKey.  The data that I
am looking up is in the Database.  I would estimate that 2-3% of the time this is the
FindKey
is not finding the record from the table.

        Why is this happening?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

Check for non-visible characters that may be either in the actual
key values or in your search key (e.g., blanks).  Also, check the
key sizes.

This is clearly a database question, but was also posted in "misc" and
