See CursorSetProp() in VFP help. If you want all views and tables to have a specific buffering mode when you open them, issue the following from the command window:

CursorSetProp("Buffering", x, 0)

where x is any number between 1 and 5. The third parameter is a ZERO which means to set buffering mode for all cursors opened after this point. This does not retroactively set buffering for views or tables already open.
