what does LowLevel indicate on an API Function?

I think it does. I saw it in the api docs and wondered about it. I'll go with your rule of thumb.

The distinction between "levels" is a little unclear in Miva. In some cases, the LowLevel function is very basic, reading or writing a single record in a single table; and the high-level function adds a lot of related functionality, such as increasing or decreasing reference counts. In other cases, the LowLevel function does most of the work across multiple tables, and the high-level function just adds a simple "wrapper" for purposes such as file or table locking.

The best rule of thumb is to always call the high-level function, unless you're absolutely sure that you only want the low-level functionality. Figuring out the difference will require some understanding of Miva Script, and of programming techniques in general, and a copy of the LSK.

Hope that helps --

I think this will take a product and insert it into a category, however I don't know what LowLevel does. What does it do?
