Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Re: PLZ DISREGARD PREV MAIL..1.Query Caching 2.Implementing search Feature
Query caching is one solution to alleviate the speed of the query execution. There is the need to search page by page by a certain amount of records. In an ad hoc solution, I have seen a second query that would perform a query on the original source based upon a start point. The cfouput will typically have a maxrows based upon the query of a query. For the search criteria form, storing the criteria in a shared scope other always helps. The goal would not to change the originating query in any way otherwise the cache will be reset for a different combination. The search criteria would need to exists in the query of the query.
