Hi Hilmar

I gave up using Flush because it was taking 1.25 seconds per record in VFP 7.0 on a Dell PIII-450mhz Win2k 100meg Ethernet network. So if I updated 100 records it took over two minutes. However, removing the Flush the update was done almost instantly.

I understand the risks but the users were complaining about the slow speed of the application. So I would only use the flush command in some very critical sections.
