And I will sugest the use of a TIBOQuery instead of TIBOTable.

One other think to remember: don't forget that 56Kb is the speed of download of the modem. It will upload at 32Kb. So, put the call on the client side, and don't use "callback" on the server side.

> Before I go ahead and build an application need to know something about

line, slow. Would like to show through a query the data of a table in a
dbgrid. What I need to know is the dbgrid clever enough to call say 20
records at a time from the server, or will it want to download the whole
2meg table before it displays it ? If so is there an approach to minimize
the traffic over the slow line.

It isn't DBGrid with the smarts on efficient record fetching. It is how the
dataset it is attached to responds to its need for records. If you have
supporting indexes, using the TIBOTable component can be very efficient in
how it deals with records for browsing a table, of any size for that matter.
