Hi John,

As Kiran implies,  limitby is already used by the pagination.  

I suggest that you could make an overall limit of records by using a 
separate query.  This isn't particularly efficient,  but depending on what 
you want to achieve,  it could still work well.  

Here is a bit of code to demonstrate what I mean...

This gets a list of the first 50 records:
    list_of_ids = [i.id for i in db(db.mytable).select(db.mytable.id, 
limitby=(0,50))]

Now add that to your query for the grid -- something like this:
    your_existing_query & (db.mytable.id.belongs(list_of_ids))
