Scott writes "If the cachesize on a server is set to 1, and you do a select that returns 100 rows, is a db2 read of the table preformed everytime a movenext, movefirst, eof, etc check is performed?

According to this page:

http://www.learnasp.com/learn/whygetrows.asp

rst.GetRows should be used (to move records into a string) rather than doing a rst.movenext to keep from doing a db2 read of the table. Microsoft seems to agree on this according to one of their performance pages for ASP, but one of our dba's doesn't think that a read is done every time - even with the cachsize set to 1.

Anyone have thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Scott"
