>*Important:* The revdb_moveprev function is part of the > Database library. To ensure that the function works in a > standalone application, you must include this > LiveCode custom library when you create your > standalone application. In the Inclusions pane of the > Standalone Application Settings window, make sure both the > "Database" library checkbox and those of the database drivers you are > using are checked.
