multiuser function
to allow mutiuser in fox pro 9.0 I must:
1- Set exclusive off (in main program)
2- Buffer tables in dataenvironment to 5
this is all I did and it worked. now to record to a table, before the update command I change the table´s buffer to 1 and it worked. Am I doing this correctly? Will this bring any problems later in usage. I use the insert and update commands, I don´t use tablupdate.

- No. Use tableupdate(). Do not switch buffering to 1 (which means removing it). Having table buffering doesn't prevent using insert/update commands.And you forgot the most important:-Private datasession (not directly related to multiuser but in a single VFP session you can act as a multiuser)-"set exclusive off" in DE.BeforeOpentables or form load or init

- How do I record data to a table that´s buffered to optimistic locking. I can´t record with this property. I´m trying to convert my app to multiuser.
