In ADO whether all records
fetched in memory or not is controlled by Cursor Location property
and doesn't depend on DB backend at all.

Works fast with clUseServer. What are the tradeoffs here? From my
little testing I can see no disadvantages to keeping cursor (resultset)
on the server. Grid populates fast. Open is fast. Why would anyone use
a client side cursor?

This is only available in ADO, right? Would be nice if I could do that
with BDE. Does BDE then use a client side cursor, i.e. copy all the
data to client when I do table.open? (I'm stuck with a large BDE app
right now)
What it the purpose of grid with 280000 records? Where did you find users
which can work with that much data?
