losing my pointer in a QTP update?

[Richard Witkopp]

I'm getting the dreaded "Cannot find record..." blah blah after I change a
key value problem. I thought I put the required alias stuff on, but
apparently not. The item I'm modifying is CHECK_#, which is part of the
primary key.
 
On VMS with isam (RMS) files.
 
Log error:
