Hello

Personally I use row buffering cause 99% of my program only deals with a row or a few rows at a time, I never use table buffering. When I need a entire table I use a "lock program" function and then exclusive file lock for maintenance, but I am not the "Visual FoxPro Guru" just a programmer with a opinion.


>I saw a thread here just recently, but can't find it at the moment. Someone questioned the use of Row Buffereing (RB) over Table Buffering (TB). I was under the impression the RB was the preferred way and TB was used more when you were doing maintenance, etc. I thought the idea was that you only updated what you needed to update and that using TB was superfluous for the most part. Could someone give me a definative response as to when to use either RB or TB and why? Thanks!
