[dba-SQLServer] Continuous Forms and Filters

I am curious.  My understanding is that when a filter is applied this way,
all the records are brought across and the filtering is done by Access, not
at the SQL end.  Is this correct?

Glad it did the trick. I link the tables/views through ODBC connections but
then don't populate the forms until I have a thin recordset to call.
Efficient enough for the scale I'm working with even over the internet to
desktops.

Thanks to Gary for his help,  the solution was to use linked tables or views
and not a stored procedure.
