Be careful with this.  We recently had a customer do an emailing with 22,000
rows in a datatable in a dataset.  The dataset simply is not designed for
this amount of records and it was SLOW. We broke it up into smaller datasets
of about 500 record each.

Subject: [DOTNET-CLR] Limit Rows in DataTable


I have an application under test, where I iteratively reset an export batch
and then run the export for different configurations.  For major testing, I
wish to test each config over the full monty, 70k documents exported, but
for dev testing I like to keep the rows in each section down to 500.  Last
night in the interests of not breaking code, I was popping 'TOP 500' into
each query, but I'm sure there is a better way.  Any suggestions will be
appreciated.  I'm using a SqlDataAdapter to fill my DataTable objects.
