Hi all,

I'm looking for some help and maybe a simple example, to understand how to
use the TDataSet::Locate method with multiple key fields; the declaration is
given below.

virtual bool __fastcall Locate(const AnsiString KeyFields, const
System::Variant &KeyValues, TLocateOptions Options);

In the help file, it states the following, "Descendant classes that are not
unidirectional override this method so that it locates the record where the
fields identified by the semicolon-separated list of fields in KeyFields
have the values specified by the Variant or Variant array KeyValues."

I understand that in my AnsiString variable, I can have something like this:
AnsiString FieldList = "AuditID;PlantID";

But now, how do I set/give the values for each? What would the call look
like?

Thanks for any help given,
