This procedure wasn’t for showing data to the user, it was to create a  
new payment entry. Right now that procedure is a little over 700 lines  
of SQL. The result though is just an ID.

I’d agree though that most of the time pagination is a good answer. I  
have seen clients though that specifically didn’t want pagination. Or at  
least didn’t THINK they wanted it 🙂

Hi Peter. For some reason you seem familiar. Do you hang out on Java  
or Delphi forums at all?
