Pagination of data - Visual Basic .NET

John

Hi

I am developing a vb2005/sql server 2005 winform app which involves
displaying records in a list, one page at a time. The total number of
records is large. I am wondering if there is a way either in vb/ado or sql
server that automatically pages a certain number of records at a time and
when user scrolls down (or up) pages the next set of records? I guess I can
possibly program it manually but it may be complicated specially when the
records in the next/previous set are different due to the different sort
orders. Ideally I am looking for giving a select statement to include all
records as data source and then expect system to handle any pagination and
bringing only one page of record from server at any one time.

Thanks

Regards

Of the various solutions given, most of them are not ASP-specific. Mostly
they use TSQL.

Hi John,

I am not a DBA or even half-experienced db developer but, I guess you could
consider achieving your goal by using views. You will still, as you state,
return the whole recordset and possibly 'store it' as a dataset. You can
then create the required views as needed. If there are any DBA's reading
PLEASE don't lecture on the bad practice of returning more records than
required....IT' S NOT MY IDEA! :-) :-)

I know you asked if there was a way to do this 'automatically' , but I don't
know of one, other than the built-in methods within the asp datagrid. Sorry
if this is not helpful.

Good luck.
