Queries against large data sets and/or poorly defined queries can take a very long time before a screen's worth of data can be returned to the browser.
If there isn't currently a way to do this is there any technical reason why it couldn't be done in future releases?
Mike, That specific behavior is typically observed withe ill-defined views that take time, behind the scenes, to pull data from various tables (as you have stated very eloquently). Actually, you can use SET FEEDBACK ON to visually observe the data gathering process and its progress. Having said that, implementing a combination of a few keys to cancel the query is a great idea. Remember, nothing is impossible! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
