Remarks
Use the AbsolutePage property to set or return the "page" number on which the current record is located. Use the PageSize property to logically divide the Recordset object into a series of pages, each of which has the number of records equal to PageSize.
Like the AbsolutePosition property, AbsolutePage is 1-based and returns 1 when the current record is the first record in the Recordset. If the provider cannot determine the absolute page number, it returns adPosUnknown (-1). If either the BOF or EOF property is True, the provider returns the constants adPosBOF or adPosEOF respectively.
You can set this property to move to the first record of a particular page. You can obtain the total number of pages from the PageCount property.
