Semantics, semantics :-)

Force, default....whatever....if you use a Form's BufferMode property of "Optimistic" without specifying the type (row,table) in a cursor, cursors bound to grids *will* be table buffered.

Sheesh, Barbara, let me be! :-D


>Default, yes. Force, no. I've had grids with row buffering on several occasions. Sometimes deliberately, usually because I'd re-set buffering somewhere.
