Hi Geoff,

In data entry programs, I work on 'clones' of the original tables. The clones are 'CREATED' in the LOAD event of the forms. At safe time I copy the contents of the clones into the ad hoc tables, under a transaction scheme.

I'm probably duplicating VFP's buffering scheme, but I have found that in one-to-many input programs, with grids, it realy gives you a lot of flexibility.

Not sure I answered the question, but feel free to ask more detail.

Marc
