A record is a line in the database of a specific class.

'Open a record
    Record.Open(Class as class,ID as long,View as view)
'Get options from a field
    Database.Classes("business").Fields("businesstatus").Options.Lookup("agreement",lkLookupOptionByKey).Value

When creating or updating several records you should use a batch. A batch collects records and make one database call instead of calling the database to update each record.
