01 · OVERVIEW

Overview

Searches using the order selected by PswOrder. The manual uses .T. for users, the historical default, and .F. for groups. Names and IDs are not interchangeable keys without the matching order. Read PswID or PswRet only after successful Boolean return. The uninvoked block assumes the caller already selected the order. (Sources: refs. 1–1.)
