Matt,

I use Buffering=5 in my product as well.

Subject: Re: How common is Table Buffering with DBFs??

Matt,

I can'tdo without buffering in VFP. I dont think it is otherwise possible
to do a proper UNDO. If not I am willing to learn how one can do an undo /
redo without Buffering=5
If X# will produce a product without buffering that would mean a show
stopper to me.

Regards,
Koen
