nNew: Type: DWord
The work area number for the new work area.
riOld: Type: Usual

Return Value

Type: Logic
TRUE if successful; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

This function is like DBSelect() but strongly typed.

This function, however, does not call the error handler and will therefore not produce a runtime error message or create an error object if it fails.
Therefore it is important to check the return value to determine if the function succeeded.

The LastRddError property in the runtimestate will contain needed information about any error that occurs.

Tip
VoDbSelect() and CoreDb.Select() are aliases

Tip
The difference between VoDb.Select and CoreDb.Select is that VoDb.Select takes a USUAL parameter
