TDataSet.Lookup Method

RAD Studio VCL Reference

Implements a virtual method to retrieve field values from a record that matches specified search values.
function Lookup(const KeyFields: string; const KeyValues: Variant; const ResultFields: string): Variant; virtual;
virtual __fastcall Variant Lookup(const AnsiString KeyFields, const Variant KeyValues, const AnsiString ResultFields);
This function:
Checks whether the dataset is unidirectional, and if so, raises an EDatabaseError exception.
Returns a Variant with the value false, indicating that a matching record was not found.
Descendant classes that are not unidirectional override this method so that it locates the record where the fields identified by the comma-delimited string KeyFields have the values specified by the Variant or Variant array KeyValues. In classes that implement Lookup, it returns a Variant or Variant array that contains the value or values of the fields specified by the comma-delimited string ResultFields on the specified record.
