Details

If you have a viewer and the viewer is a data form, a form editor, or a subclass of the form editor, then the value returned for row-num is the currently displayed row regardless of the mode and locking level.

If you have a viewer and the viewer is a data table, a table editor, or a subclass of the table editor, then the value returned for row-num varies based on mode and locking level. If the mode is edit with record level locking, then row-num is the currently locked row. If the mode is browse or edit with member level locking, then the value returned for row-num is the row where the table editor's active cell indicator is located.

If no viewer is attached, the current row is the row most recently read using _getRow or _fetchRow.

If you fetch a row with the _fetchRow method and that row is already locked by another edit session on the data set, then _getCurrentRowNumber returns a -1.
