Kev,
This is a good idea. It is a good rule of thumb to only get the data that the user is requesting at a given time. If your app were to go client/server or web-based you would be forced to take this approach so it's a good idea to do it anyway.
11 pageframes!!???? That's excessive even for a native VFP app!
Good luck,
