+<h3><pre>
+#include &lt;db.h&gt;
+<p>
+int
+DB-&gt;key_range(DB *db, DB_TXN *txnid,
+ DBT *key, DB_KEY_RANGE *key_range, u_int32_t flags);
+</pre></h3>
+<h1>Description</h1>
+<p>The DB-&gt;key_range function returns an estimate of the proportion of keys
+that are less than, equal to and greater than the specified key. The
+underlying database must be of type Btree.
+<p>The information is returned in the <b>key_range</b> argument, which
+contains three elements of type double, <b>less</b>, <b>equal</b> and
+<b>greater</b>. Values are in the range of 0 to 1, e.g., if the field
+<b>less</b> is 0.05, that indicates that 5% of the keys in the database
+are less than the key argument. The value for <b>equal</b> will be zero
+if there is no matching key and non-zero otherwise.
+<p>If the file is being accessed under transaction protection, the
+<b>txnid</b> parameter is a transaction ID returned from
+<a href="../api_c/txn_begin.html">txn_begin</a>, otherwise, NULL.
+The DB-&gt;key_range function does not retain the locks it acquires for the
+life of the transaction, so estimates may not be repeatable.
+<p>The <b>flags</b> parameter is currently unused, and must be set to 0.
+<p>The DB-&gt;key_range function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
+<h1>Errors</h1>
+<p>The DB-&gt;key_range function may fail and return a non-zero error for the following conditions:
+<p><dl compact>
+<p><dt>DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK<dd>The operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
+</dl>
+<p><dl compact>
+<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
+<p>The underlying database was not of type Btree.
+</dl>
+<p>The DB-&gt;key_range function may fail and return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system functions.
+If a catastrophic error has occurred, the DB-&gt;key_range function may fail and return
+<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail
+in the same way.
