    Hi Gopika,

    The first is checking the integrity of the database (rarely needed unless you are seeing strange behaviour) and not doing a cross-view check.

    The second and third are equivalent, with the second being for batch operation (doesn't necessarily need a window), whereas the third is an interactive command which works on the current window.

    The cross-view check is not strictly required on a symbol, but it does tend to spot potential errors sooner rather than later.

    Regards,

    Andrew
