we all know how to write applications like invoicing etc., in foxpro 2.x. Where we used to create cursor to hold invoice details, create a hot key for updation. And when pressed we used to update/create records in invoice details+header tables, Item balance table, Account Receivables tables etc.

VFP brought record/table buffering, integrated grid control,transaction processing which has changed whole landscape.

Could any one suggest best ways to solve above problems in VFP, highlighting the advantages, and limitations of buffering, grid control [using cursors for table lookups]

thanks in advance
