John,

Use a search form to limit options or use demand paging on the grid.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is demand paging? =(

When you say search form, say when a user clicks on Invoices, an 'empty form' shows up right away asking for search details? If so, then another form fires up to show the results? Where must one put the New, Edit, Save, Undo functionalities?

Thanks
Dennis
