The **TimeOut **property controls automatic record set buffering for the managed view (see //BUFFER //in the //Language Reference//). Some file drivers do not support buffering.

TimeOut specifies the number of seconds the buffered records are considered "trustworthy" in a network environment. If the TimeOut period has expired, the VIEW fills a request for records from the backend database rather than from the buffer.

**Implementation:**

The Init method sets the TimeOut property to sixty (60). The Open method implements the buffering specified by the PagesAhead, PagesBehind, PageSize, and TimeOut properties.
