Urgent help need in ASP

[rk2008]

I have a dll returning a variant array of 40,000 rows to an ASP page. I
can't use a Variant variable in ASP since the maximum rows it accepts
is 32717 approx. Can someone advice how to get the Variant array
returned by the dll into the ASP page?
Thanks!

return it as a delimited string and use Split() to process it? Or
perhaps an xml document?

I can't imagine anybody wants to see 40,000 rows in a page.

use paging so the user only sees a limited number of rows and then can step through the results in chunks

I have a dll returning a variant array of 40,000 rows to an ASP page. I
can't use a Variant variable in ASP since the maximum rows it accepts
is 32717 approx.

The max number of elements in array is 2^32. Perhaps you are running into
another limitation like the amount memory being used.
