acbExpression
Type: Usual
The single expression to be averaged or the array of expressions to be averaged.

The condition evaluated for each record from the first record until the condition returns FALSE. It provides the same functionality as the WHILE clause of record processing commands.
uScope
Type: Usual
The range of records to process, providing the same functionality as the ALL, REST and NEXT clauses of record processing commands.
ValueDescription

DBSCOPERESTThe scope is the remaining records in the table from the current position.
<nRecords> The scope is the next nRecords records.
