datagrids and databases

[Peter Haworth]

There is a way to load only the data fro the visible number of lines into a
datagrid.  It takes a fair amount more code and isn't usually worth it you
are loading a very large amount of data into the datagrid and performance
is suffering.

Take a look at section 9.1 of the Datagrid Manual for details.  There's a
download link for a demo stack in that section.
