When a table of keys is specified, as in keytable, it is assumed that the first column contains the desired keys.
findrec prints a table of row(s) stored at the logical row number key(s) on the standard output. If the -v or verbose option is specified, and findrec can not locate the desired key, it will print a message on the standard error indicating why.
