Re: Looking for Skeleton RPG program

9,999 is nothing - some years ago a client asked me to help them work out why the Windows team were constantly complaining about the performance of the IBM i on remote SQL access. Turned out the idiots were running queries that returned in excess of 1,000,000 rows!

Wonder how long it would have taken the user to page through that!

Great book. Got it on my bookshelf.

Personally, I always use Load All subfiles. In the early days of the AS/400
loading 9999 rows could take awhile. I have a couple of programs that,
potentially, could load more than that and are still subsecond on a System
i. I agree that for an actual client to read 9999 records is not going to
happen. In the one program that I have that might actually load that many
records, once I've loaded 9900 records, I stop and put a msg in the message
subfile that says "You might want to re-think this"; it does have selectors
that can narrow the search (which should realistically be, oh, 20-50
records).

Hi

What I did was purchased Subfiles in FREE-FROMAT RPG by KEVIN VANDEVER..

Good book and you'll understand what you are actually doing and the subfile
subject as a whole.

Good luck.
