i think the answer has to be 'all' or 'none', and i vote for all <s>. because i think its a trick question. any of the fox errors can be trapped, analyzed, and an alternative code can be executed. maybe a form won't be the choise to run then, but others could. none of them (errors) would 'crash' fox and kick you out.

so the answer has to be all.

look in help for CURSORSETPROP() and .buffermode.
the differense here is, that with CURSORSETPROP() you can specify if its table or record buffering. in the forms .buffermode you can not - it is pre-determined by the objects on the form (grid and all other control bound objects). then you have optimistic and pessimistic buffereing in addition to none at all. so you get to 3 options in the form and 5 for CURSORSETPROP().
