Hi all,

I need a "primer" on why and how to use the cursor adaptor class. The help file does not really have a lot of examples. I have heard of others who have used them instead of the VFP views that are defined with the view designer. I have not really had a problem with views as my main customers are only using the VFP native database.

I started poking about this class as I was thinking of creating a new form class that was a "mover" form i.e. two lists where the user moves stuff from the left hand "available" list to the right hand "chosen" list. I have a class for this but it is very old (2000) and is just kinda cumbersome to use. I have thought of passing in arrays to the form but then got thinking is there a way to pass in cursors as objects?

So really I have 2 questions: when to use the cursor adaptor class and some examples of how to use it and b) any ideas for building a new "mover" class?

Thanks,
Albert
