I'm having trouble understanding the new TABLEUPDATE() in VFP 5.0. If I read the help screen correctly, there is no way to TABLEUPDATE all rows unless Buffering is set to Optimistic or Pessimistic Table; i.e., if Row Buffering is enabled, I can only save changes made to the current record.

If this is correct, then must I enable Table Buffering rather than Row Buffering when the user is working in a grid control? If so, then Row Buffering appears dangerous since I can't commit changes beyond the current record???

TIA.
