Narrative:

At XA03 I began working radar at eug approach. The sector was combined with no handoff man. As traffic began to build up, I requested a handoff person. Before I could brief the handoff controller, an aircraft I had on a radar vector for an ILS at cvo crossed into seattle center's airspace without a handoff or pointout. Prior to the deviation I lost the data block on the aircraft. I believe this was a contributing factor since I was busy and did not notice the loss of data.

Title: ACFT ON VECTOR ENTERED ADJACENT FAC AIRSPACE WITHOUT A POINTOUT.

Narrative: AT XA03 I BEGAN WORKING RADAR AT EUG APCH. THE SECTOR WAS COMBINED WITH NO HANDOFF MAN. AS TFC BEGAN TO BUILD UP, I REQUESTED A HANDOFF PERSON. BEFORE I COULD BRIEF THE HANDOFF CTLR, AN ACFT I HAD ON A RADAR VECTOR FOR AN ILS AT CVO CROSSED INTO SEATTLE CENTER'S AIRSPACE WITHOUT A HANDOFF OR POINTOUT. PRIOR TO THE DEVIATION I LOST THE DATA BLOCK ON THE ACFT. I BELIEVE THIS WAS A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR SINCE I WAS BUSY AND DID NOT NOTICE THE LOSS OF DATA.
