Hi,

Rec is the current record and xRec is the values of the previous version of the record. For example you have Cust. Reference No. as A1234 in current record and you are changing the value of Cust. Reference No. to say B1234 then B1234 is the Rec and A1234 is the xRec.

Note: xRec is not the contents of the record in the database - i.e. it is not read from the database and supplied to the trigger (as it is in many other trigger based systems). It might be of course, and often is. It is merely the value in the form buffer prior to editing. That means it can be unreliable for acurate logging purposes.
