I would argue that SET MULTILOCKS ON and the CURSORGETPROP belong at the form-level, not in your button class. Put SET MULTILOCKS ON in the Load method of your "base" form class. If you use the data environment, set up buffering for the tables there. If not, put that code wherever you open the tables, or in your "base" form class, add code that loops through all open tables and sets up buffering.

The TableUpdate() does belong in your Save button (but I wouldn't think in any other) and yes, you can set that up in the button class. Just add it to the Click method of that button.
