+DESCRIPTION
+Cq_locaten locates a catalog / survey record in the configuration file by
+sequence number. Cq_locaten is an integer function which returns the catalog
+/ survey record sequence number as its function value. Zero is returned
+if the catalog record is not located. Cq_locaten also returns the name of the
+located catalog in the array catname.
+

+NOTES
+Cq_locaten is used to determine whether the requested record exists. It does
+not set the current catalog / survey. This must be done with a call to
+cq_setcat or cq_setcatn.
