Body
There are probably a few things wrong/going on here. The first is, your point position when you are executing this. The second is, if you are using /home/user/something, that there is a strong possibility you will have mismatch between /home/user/something and ~/something (ffap returns the latter while at the point you may have written the former). First: The use of <code>looking-at</code> with the regexp quoted filename expects the point to be at the beginning: e.g. <code>|/home/user/something</code>. Its partner, <code>looking-back</code> expects <code>/home/user/something|</code>. Being somewhere in the middle will throw this error. One quick fix for this is changing <code>looking-at</code> to <code>thing-at-point-looking-at</code>. Second: If you have written /home/user/something, ffap functions (in my case) shorten this using ~. There are probably some settings that govern this, but the easiest, quick fix I know of is using <code>expand-file-name</code>. This will take care of the first case, and if it is written as ~/something, the <code>save-excursion</code> body will replace it in the alternate case. The only negative result I see is that, you might sometimes replace: <code>/home/user/something</code> with <code>~/somethingelse</code> But, anyways, these two quick fixes just result in this complete change: <code>(thing-at-point-looking-at (regexp-quote (expand-file-name currfile)))</code>

1. COThanks!! Yup that was it that it doesn't work properly on full path names unless you use expand-file-name but as you said replaces it with the shortened version. Is there anyway easily to force it to expand if it was already expanded or maybe preferably just expand the file name if a prefix arg (C-u) is passed in to the function.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
