Jason, thnx for your advise. It seems to work now better. There is now
better response but I get everytime a window saying 5 rows fetch. Wich I
don't like... On the same form a have the example a showed in another

Bram,

You need to include a special little feature that I am finishing up in IBO
v4. I already have quite a bit of the work in 3.6 already.

To test it out try adding the following param attribute entry in your
OrderingLinks property:

If you have an entry that looks like this:

STREET=1

or this:

STREET=ITEM=1

Then make it look like this:

STREET=ITEM=1;POS=0

I am assuming that you are using the 1st entry in the OrderingItems list. If
not, simply use whatever item you have entered.

This new feature hinges on the POS attribute being included. It should make
it so that incremental searching is reasonably efficient on a LAN. I don't
think it would be advisable on a slow dialup link though. Just for kicks,
try it if you like, it should still be somewhat feasible.

With IBO v4 this will be fully implemented so that the dataset appears
exactly as it would normally. For now what is incomplete in the 3.6 version
is that the top of your dataset (BOF) gets launched out into the middle of
the actual dataset somewhere. You get to the records you want more quickly
but the "wholeness" of the dataset is lost.

Let me know how it goes.

PS. In case people are wondering what is holding IBO v4 BETA release up, I
am having absolute fits getting the TCustomGrid class to behave so that I
can accommodate the buffering enhancements required to preserve all current
functionality and add in the new functionality I am planning on. I am just
about ready to hack the class to force it to behave or beef up the
TIB_Ledger control so that I can have full control over what my grid does.
