I'm following this "data-aware awareness" thread with
interest.

What's the "restriction" issue here - cutting
down the number of rows, or limiting the number
of columns?     Rows, right?

But if you're presenting data in a scrolling grid
doesn't your underlying query result have to 
contain all the rows?

Or are you "paging" with separate queries some way?

I've avoided "aware" controls like grids for 
exactly the reason Nic mentioned about the
"locate/findkey/next/prev etc" mentality.

I'd like to hear more details about this trick of
"restricting the dataset".     Now that IB is such
an attractive upgrade for the old paradox apps
this is useful information.
