Purpose

Syntax

Description
When SET NEAR is ON, searches of the table go to the record immediately following the potential location of the search key in the relevant file, if the key itself is not found. SET NEAR is synonymous with SET SOFTSEEK. Both SET NEAR and SET SOFTSEEK function when any valid expression is used with the SEEK command. It has no effect on relationships. By default, NEAR is OFF.
Example
set near on use demo select state seek "MB" ? found() .F. ? eof() .F. ? state MD set near off seek "MB" ? found() .F. ? eof() .T.
