Is there any way to limit the number of records loaded into a ListBox?
I looked at qdf.MaxRecords (to apply to the query that is the RowSource of
the ListBox) but that only applies to ODBC data sources. I also looked at
Tools > Options > Edit/Find and tried setting the "Don't display lists where
more than this number of records read:" property, but that doesn't help.
The List Box in question is supposed to allow scrolling/browsing of all
records in the database, but that gets to be a problem with tens of
thousands of records.
There are a number of options the user has to sort/filter/narrow the list to
find whatever is being searched for, so I'd like to limit the list to
something around 10,000 which would encourage the user to use the those
other features. Can this be done? Do I have to use something like SELECT
TOP 10000 [records] FROM tblData?
