[AccessD] Show only X number records at a time

here's one way it is done  with ASP.NEt & SQL Server:
http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/dbpaging.asp


I take it you are trying to display some certain amount of records on an
unbound form? Remember access works differently that SQL server, and brings
over all records to the client side.

I would create a two variables, intMaxPageID and intPageNo (I guess you
could also have a intTotalPages)

Open the recordset, if DAO move last the first, get total count.
If count is greater than allowable per page, calculate MaxPages as such:
intMaxPages = rs.RecordCount / Max allowable

create a temp table and insert these records into the temp table. Make sure
the temp table has an autonumber PKID.

Now Select TOP whatever from the temp table as such:
(we'll use 100)

SELECT TOP 100 tmpPKID, CustName, CustID, CustTotals
FROM tblTempTable
WHERE tmpPKID >intMaxPageID and <=(intMaxPageID +100)


Move last and store the last records PKID in intMaxPageID

IF you want to calculate the current page number, you can create a function:

Function GetCurrentPageNo (intMaxPageID) AS integer
IF intMaxPageID Mod 100 = 0  or intMaxPageID Mod 100 >49 THEN
	GetCurrentPageNo = Cint(intMaxPageID /100)
Else intMaxPageID Mod 100 < 50
	GetCurrentPageNo = Cint(intMaxPageID /100) + 1
End IF

End Function

Subject: [AccessD] Show only X number records at a time


Hi All,

How do sites like eBay show only X number of items at a time and allow
users to jump to a page number or click next?

Is there a SQL statement that allows you to select the 2nd
(3rd,4th,5th,...)set of X number of records in a database?

Thanks!
JR
