what timeout properties? I want to do such thing. When user opens form with
dataset, dataset has fetched some records (not much). if user goes to last
record, it takes a long time to go there, becouse in my case table is very
big. so i want to create timer with for ex. 2000 interval and that it would
fetch for ex. 10000 records in every 2 sec. and it gets so: if user opens
form, waits for a long time, press LastRecords and it faster goes there
(becouse due timer fetches, more records are fetched). so the problem is: is
there any method like IBODataSet.FetchNextRecords(10000)?

IBO does this in the background. It's all controlled by TimeoutProperties.
It is one of IBO's best facilities.

What are you trying to achieve?
