INDEXORD()
 Return the order position of the controlling index
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

     INDEXORD() --> nOrder

 Returns

     INDEXORD() returns an integer numeric value.  The value returned is
     equal to the position of the controlling index in the list of open
     indexes for the current work area.  A value of zero indicates that there
     is no controlling index and records are being accessed in natural order.
     If no database file is open, INDEXORD() will also return a zero.

 Description

     INDEXORD() is a database function that determines the position of the
     controlling index in the list of index files opened by the last
     USE...INDEX or SET INDEX TO in the current work area.  It is often
     useful to save the last controlling index so it can be restored later.

     By default, INDEXORD() operates on the currently selected work area.  It
     will operate on an unselected work area if you specify it as part of an
     aliased expression (see example below).

 Examples

     .  This example uses INDEXORD() to save the current order.  After
        changing to a new order, it uses the saved value to restore the
        original order:

        USE Customer INDEX Name, Serial NEW
        nOrder := INDEXORD()                  // Result: 1
        SET ORDER TO 2
        ? INDEXORD()                           // Result: 2
        SET ORDER TO nOrder
        ? INDEXORD()                           // Result: 1

     .  This example uses an aliased expression to determine the order
        number of the controlling index in an unselected work area:

        USE Sales INDEX Salesman, CustNum NEW
        USE Customer INDEX Name, Serial NEW
        ? Sales->(INDEXORD())               // Result: 1
