how does a recordset work ?My memory capacity is 384 MB and I have opened a DAO recordset that is larger than the capacity successfully. It has 900000 records. Each record contains 1000 characters. Though I have opend it successfully, but I still do not know how it works. Does it work using "disk cache" ? How many MBs of memory have been occupied by my recordset ? Could you help me ?

Also keep in mind that typically, a recordset won't be held all in memory at
once. It might be, but usually not. Usually only a few rows are held in memory at a time...how many depends on various settings, but I believe in DAO, the default is 100 (someone feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken).
