>If your forms use Provate Datasessions, and you don't have any other use for the collections, why not just use AUSED in your data handling functions? It doesn't care whether the cursors are in the DE or not. You can check the buffering setting with CURSORGETPROP instead of checking the cursor's buffering property...

I'm just trying to decide which is less work for me < s >. I've already got the DE working and wanted to use that. I may just add the ability to do either and be done with it.

Thanks for all the help, Erik.
