# Enable Buffer

Set the Enable Buffer parameter of a table to add a "buffer" query, which will return the last n number of records added to the table, ordered by the most recently added, first.

From the Project Explorer, right-click the table and select Enable Buffer from the menu.

When Enable Buffer is enabled for a table, a new query is created that keeps each newly added row in memory for easy access. This option is intended to be used as a simple query that displays the latest row(s) added to the table during the current session of Designer.

With this option enabled:

- The query result is ordered so that the row added last is displayed first.
- The query's row count is limited to the size of the buffer.
- At startup, the query will return no rows. Only once rows have been added in the current session of Designer will there be rows to display.
