>Already checked that. How does the table buffering not get set???

That's the $64,000 question, yes? < s >

1. What does your code look like where you are reverting the tables?

2. Does your grid simply set the record source to your table? Or are you doing anything...er...*fancy*?

3. You have definately set your cursor's BufferModeOverride to 3 or 5?

4. The table doesn't get closed and reopened does it?

I'm grasping, I know, but generally this works smoothly. Not that I think that's exactly comforting! :-)
