# IDLdbRecordset::GetRecord

Use the IDLdbRecordset::GetRecord function method to retrieve the value of the current record in an IDL DataMiner anonymous structure. The field names of the structure are the field names of the recordset.

Note: Any blob data is placed in an IDL DataMiner pointer and as such must be freed using the IDL DataMiner PTR_FREE or HEAP_FREE routine.

## Syntax

Result = RSobj -> [IDLdbRecordset::]GetRecord()

## Return Value

Returns the value of the current record in an IDL anonymous structure.

## Arguments

None.

## Keywords

None.

## Examples

The following code fragment creates a database object and connects to the database, creates a recordset object, then moves to the first record in the recordset, retrieves the value of the record, and uses the IDL DataMiner HELP procedure to display information on the record.

oDB = OBJ_NEW('IDLdbDatabase')

status = DIALOG_DBCONNECT(oDB)

oRS = OBJ_NEW('IDLdbRecordset', oDB, TABLE='table')

IF(oRS->MoveCursor(/FIRST) EQ 1)THEN BEGIN

record = oRS->GetRecord()

HELP, record, /STRUCTURE
