Re: main difference between expandable and singlepage subfile

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I set a limit in the subfile build.  If the subfile exceeds that limit 
then the user sees a message window suggesting a tighter filter, or that 
only the first x records will be displayed, or ... .

   dou sqlcode <> 0 or SFLNUM > 200;   // limit subfile to 10 screens:

As an aside, one of the consequences for me is being forced to think 
through the design a bit more.  Usually this results in better user-flow 
and easier new-user training. In other words, a better product.
