There's a friend who is working on a web that retrieves information 
from an Oracle DB and display as a table, the thing is that the 
information is huge, and the table seems endless, what's the best way 
in ASP to divide this table each 7 columns for example with a 
dynamically displayed next button in the bottom, create a new page, 
put the next 7 columns in it, and so on.

By the way I'm kind of newbie, so kindly explain what for what in the 
code.

Thanx in advanced
