Hi, Peter. It's question on application design strategy and depends
on application nature, network and so on. What is better for you -
slow start with fetching throng of cataloques, even if they are short,
or fast start and delays on fetching them each time when needed? I
don't know. There is some workaround if you need more than 1 column in
client-cashed cataloque. The best for it is fetch into ClientDataSet.
And I'm surprised Helen don't chase us away to ib-support or mers
yet. :)

Best regards.
