>>>Hi all
>>>
>>>I am encountering weird behavior in my VFP application, which was created using VFP 6.
>>>
>>>In a parent-child form (actually an invoice entry form), there is a grid where you enter child records. There are times when a user currently editing information would all of a sudden see grid information on the screen that is currently being entered by another user from another workstation.
>>>
>>>The parent table is using optimiistic row buffering, and the child table is optimistic table buffering. The parent-child table is linked by a relationship in the DBC and the data environment.
>>>
>>>Right now, all I can think of is this may be a VFP 6 problem, but I just could not find any information saying that this is so. We have applications in VFP 9 and they do not exhibit this behavior.
>>>
>>>I really appreciate all the help...
>>>
>>>TIA
>>
>>When do you save data? Could it be that you saved the data and re-loaded?

>thanks

Hi Bernard,

It may be you found a bug in VFP6 buffering behavior. I don't remember if I've ever seen the behavior you're describing myself. I'll search on this forum.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
