I'd rather use the load event to open the tables:
use clients alias myclients in 0 order account shared
in this manner I have absolute control on the table, without having to
resort to using the mouse to set buffering, ordering,relations or whatever.
I always put the following statement in the unload event
close tables all
which will ensure that not only all tables are closed but also any
cursors developed in the form.
Or I can chose to close some of the tables or none.
The dataenvironment forces you to use the ide to handle the table.
Anyways, it is always a matter of preference

Desmond,
A number of years ago - I discovered the use of the Data Environment on Forms. Why did I
find it so Exciting? I'm glad you asked! Because - once you put one or more Tables in the
Data Environment - you can simply Drag-n-Drop the fields from the Table right onto your
Form - allowing you to do true "visual design". I loved being able to do that.
And, I also really liked that if you grab Multiple fields - and drop onto the Form - it
automatically creates a Grid on your form with those fields.
Not sure if this answers your Q - but, figured I would add in my 2 cents...
-K-

Subject: VFP9: Form Data Environment
Good Morning,
Thank you Fernando for your response regarding "stacking forms".
Odd question. For years I've always opened my desired forms by including the
statement use somewhere in the code... Is there a benefit to using the data
environment. Being rather set in my ways have always been a little leery of it.
Thoughts?
Regards and TIA,
Desmond
