Andy,
something IBO cannot provide.
However, IBO_Query has a property called MaxRows which will only give you
the specified number of rows no matter how many rows would be retrieved w/o
this property. I only played with it a little an don't know if the rest can
be retrieved in increments or so. Maybe other can jump in here...
with the row.
client, but I assume that all rows are sent and the Quantum Grid takes care
of only showing the desired number.
In order to minimize the amount of data having to go through the wire and
hence minimize the responce time, it is good practice to only ask for what
can be worked with by the user.
In other words, it's well worth the effort to build an intelligent query.
