Re: Embedded SQL For Screen Load

Fwiw, this is an important design issue in my opinion. The programmer can consider how the data will be used and design the flow so that a user is never presented with thousands of rows. That is an unusable data pile and should be avoided. Design a flow that gets relevant data to the user in 200 rows or less, even if it adds a step or two. Load-all subfiles, with a limit set at 250 rows or so, is what users are used to seeing.

Scroll-able cursors only scroll within the result set. If I've got L,N,O
in the data and I open a cursor, WHERE KEY >= 'M'

Then the result set starts with N, you can't do a scroll -1 and get to L.
