FWIW, in almost all cases I use optimistic row buffering, so in my base form classes' load method, I loop through my DE's cursors and set the buffering automatically to 3 (the DE doesn't auto open its tables), skipping ones that are set to anything other than 1 ("use form setting"). Then I open the tables. This been working really well for me--it's easier to remember to set autoopen .f. than all the cursor's buffering! It slows down my form load though...
