 Remarks


 The  INSERT statement uses the following arguments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Argument                                Description
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  filenumber%                            The number used in the  OPEN
                                         statement to open the table.

  recordvariable                         The record you wish to insert. It
                                         is a variable of the user-defined
                                         type corresponding to the table.





  INSERT places the contents of  recordvariable in the table, and updates the
 table's indexes to include the new record. Insert has no effect on the
 current position.

 BASIC removes trailing spaces from strings used in an insert.
