DOCERR: Help Topic "Switching Views" Is Incorrect in VFP 3.0

In the Load event code for the form, call the data environment's OpenTables method:

      THISFORM.Dataenvironment.OpenTables
					

In the Init event code for the cursor, set the CursorSource property to the appropriate view, based on the setting of the user-defined form property.

For example, the following code checks the form property and accordingly sets the CursorSource to a remote or local view:

      IF THISFORM.UseRemote = .T.
         THIS.CursorSource = RemoteView
      ELSE
         THIS.CursorSource = LocalView
      ENDIF
					

In the OpenTables method code for the data environment, set the CursorSource property of the cursor to the appropriate view, based on the setting of the user-defined form property.

For example, the following code checks the form property and accordingly sets the CursorSource to a remote or local view:

      IF THISFORM.UseRemote = .T.
         THIS.Cursor1.CursorSource = RemoteView
      ELSE
         THIS.Cursor1.CursorSource = LocalView
      ENDIF
