Using records properly.

[McDoobie <nospam@nospam.com>]

So I have this record in my spec file that goes like this ...

type people_entries is record
        person_name : String( 1..80 );
        person_addr  : String( 1..80 );
        person_num  : String(  1..80 );
        person_mail  :  String( 1..80 );
end record;


Now, I know how to store the information in the record...


NewRec : people_entries;

NewRec := person_name(aName); 

etc....

Now, would I use a "NewRec" for each field, or would I go something like...

NewRec := (aName, aAddr, aNum, aMail);

I'm a little fuzzy on this. 
And how would I tag each record to make it unique, cause all the computer 
is gonna see is "NewRec" and overwrite the last record for each new one 
that is entered.

Thanks.
