Opening Part of a Form

If unusually large forms require significant time to open, you can select an option to open part of the form by setting the Partial Grid Fetch Size display option, and specifying the number of rows and columns to open. When using this display option, use care to set the number of rows and columns to the smallest possible number. Setting this option to higher numbers could affect performance on the form.

To open part of a form:

  1. Select Preferences in the left hand frame, or select File, and then Preferences.
  2. Click the Planning icon, and then select Display Options.
  3. In Other Options, in Partial Grid Fetch Size option, enter the number of rows and columns, separated by a comma (,).

    Caution:

    The number of rows and columns specified for the Partial Grid Fetch Size option should be as small as possible. If large numbers are used, the form will load more slowly, and operations on the form will take more time.

  4. Click OK.
