The optimal behavior would be to show immediate the one record without the
result set.

However, one purpose the result set serves is to lock a record as this is
the only place we were able to insert code from a QBE select statement.
When retrieving a record, a flag is set to Y for that record and the
username of the user locking (retrieving) the record is also stored in that
record.

Selecting a new record from the result set, Exit Log or Clear will all
remove the lock flag for that record.
