Re: Speed using a dataadapter and datagrid

Thanks Ilya. I'll take a look at the listview.

You can use ListView. Or you can use DataGrid with data source other than
DataSet, e.g. ArrayList with custom objects. Keep in mind it's not going to
reduce startup time to zero.

Hi Ilya,

Thanks for your reply. Is there another control that I can use instead of
the datagrid that can have mutilple columns with headings but can be
'manually' loaded from a datareader? I just want to load a small number of
records and let the user select one. If I can avoid a dataset, then I
would
really like to.

Thanks & Regards,
Matthew

On a first run big DataSet code needs to be JITed, which takes some time.
It's not that long, probably around 10 seconds, but you have to wait.

I have several forms that use a dataadapter to fill a datatable and
display
the records in a datagrid. The first time in my app that any one of
these
forms is displayed, it takes a long time to load even when there are
only
2
records to display. Any subsequent time that one of these forms is
displayed
the speed is fine.

Is there some sort of initialisation thing happening here? Anything
that I
can do to increase the speed? Is it the dataadapter, the datatable or
the
grid that is causing this?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Kind Regards,
Matthew Pascoe
