Ok. sorry. I should not have answered like I did.

By default IBO doesn't fetch all the records. The only way it would is if
something explicitly told it to do so. Are you accessing the RecordCount
property any? That might be causing this to happen.

Have you tried tracing the code any to see what is going on?

Without more details I don't think I can help specifically.
