UI performance and large data set in Table Object

Hi Richard,
I'm at home now. looking at this...
As I mentioned in my previous listing, 20, 30, or 50000 lines can be found,
depends on the users search criteria. My example was 20,844 lines).
The record length for the table is 255 (counting up the SQL definition
lengths for all columns)
On the stack I'm only using 8 of the 13 columns from the SQL table. The
record length for the Table Field then is 200.

I also tried the Scrolling Field and compared it to the Table Field, using
20,844 lines - big difference, where the Scrolling Field won in it's
performance of no degradation of stack resize.
But I've never used this object before, because I lose the formatting of
columnar presentation.

If I use this object, is there a way to set it to columnar appearance?
And isn't it when you check the table property for this object, it changes
everything back to a Table Field?

Thanx,
Mark Stuart
