Title: Fast Grid Loading Description: Searching and Browsing is among most common task for database application. fast search is definitely is a must for good database application, specially application with high transaction load like Point of Sales. i use this because i have difficulty in displaying data to user fastly, at first time i use grid by bound it to recordset and did not notice that it is only displaying +/- 2000 record until my customer tell me that it is did not show all the data ( what a good programmer :) ). then i search msdn and found that it is ms hflexgrid limitation ( WOW ). and i start to use the clip function just like msdn told me to. and my customer say "i wonder why yours is slower than my foxpro program", i reply "because foxpro only display data page by page because foxpro procedural programming", "why dont you display it like foxpro" he ask again. that is the story of good programmer :) who learn from good non programmer. hope it is usefull for you.
