Hi Stephen, > Question is about what do you do your short term storage of data in while working on a form?
I use a mixture of both, depending on the client, the project and my experiences in the past few months. <g> Cursors have the advantage that they are typed, behave better than objects when binding to controls, are faster than collections, and are native types. Objects and collections are much better to pass around, work across data sessions and don't suffer from the need-to-save-workarea-record-number-and-EOF-state syndrom that cursors exhibit and easily cause side effects. In the end I'm happy with none. The best solution for me would be a cursor that is an object and has no dependencies on any work area or SET statement, but internally is just a plain VFP cursor. -- Christof _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/bc14e280ebee41f380fb36275f4d0...@fpl5 ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
