Thanks Mike and AĆ­lsom,
I do have the fetch property set to -1.
The problem I have is not completely understanding how to retrieve more records from the original cursor.
My screen has 10 pages on it with 10 grids (1 on each page)
Each grid represents a different set of data from my sales order detail table. So, I created a CursorAdapter in the D.E. that initially opens the Sales Order Detail table from the SQL Server, pulling all valid SO records. I then create temporary tables for each grid pulling only certain classes of items (10 distinct classes). I need these temporary tables because I allow the user to interactively change the sort order by clicking on the header of each column to resort each grid as well as interactive searches on each column...

My limited knowledge tells me to then make the cursoradapter for the Sales Order Detail table pull all the records so that I can pull the different groups from its results into each temp table. How could I pull the different groups for each temp table if my initial results are just 100 records in the cursoradapter?

The other caveat is that I need to update the cursor adapter for changes that are done in each grid...

(Sorry for the long post...)

Philip

I'm just now getting into using the VFP 9 CursorAdapters on a form using the ADO data connection to an SQL 2K Server DB. Question I have... is there anyway to put indexes on the CursorAdapter in order to use the seek() function rather than LOCATE ?
Or, is there a better way to SEEK using a method on the Adapter ???
Also, is there a more efficient way to open the adapters? It's taking so long to open, I have them set to retrieve all records because I need all the records to produce some temp tables that are in Grids on the screen... I saw the option to only retrieve 100 or so records and Fetch as needed... how can I make sure I pull all the records from the CursorAdapter when I perform an SQL-Select from the cursor tied to the adapter into a temp file??
T.I.A.

If you really need to use SEEK and indexes, you can create the indexes at the AFTERCURSORFILL event. But I suggest that you edit the SELECTCMD property to return only the row that you need from the table. And if you really need to get all the records, set the property FETCHSIZE to -1.
