Contact::GetPrevious
 
Gets the previous Contact card.
 
VARIANT_BOOL GetPrevious ()
 
Return value
True if the file was successfully positioned on the previous record, otherwise false.
 
Remarks
The order in which the previous record is sought, is determined by the preceding SeekBy-method.
When a filter is in effect (see SetFilter), this method positions on the previous record in the record set determined by the filter, and a call of any SeekBy-method does not modify the sort order nor the result of subsequent calls to this method.
