Implementing Virtual Mode with Just-In-Time Data Loading in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control
One reason to implement virtual mode in the DataGridView control is to retrieve data only as it is needed. This is called just-in-time data loading.
If you are working with a very large table in a remote database, for example, you might want to avoid startup delays by retrieving only the data that is necessary for display and retrieving additional data only when the user scrolls new rows into view. If the client computers running your application have a limited amount of memory available for storing data, you might also want to discard unused data when retrieving new values from the database.
The following sections describe how to use a DataGridView control with a just-in-time cache.
To copy the code in this topic as a single listing, see How to: Implement Virtual Mode with Just-In-Time Data Loading in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
The Form
The following code example defines a form containing a read-only DataGridView control that interacts with a Cache object through a CellValueNeeded event handler. The Cache object manages the locally stored values and uses a DataRetriever object to retrieve values from the Orders table of the sample Northwind database. The DataRetriever object, which implements the IDataPageRetriever interface required by the Cache class, is also used to initialize the DataGridView control rows and columns.
The IDataPageRetriever, DataRetriever, and Cache types are described later in this topic.

The IDataPageRetriever Interface
The following code example defines the IDataPageRetriever interface, which is implemented by the DataRetriever class. The only method declared in this interface is the SupplyPageOfData method, which requires an initial row index and a count of the number of rows in a single page of data. These values are used by the implementer to retrieve a subset of data from a data source.
A Cache object uses an implementation of this interface during construction to load two initial pages of data. Whenever an uncached value is needed, the cache discards one of these pages and requests a new page containing the value from the IDataPageRetriever.
Public Interface IDataPageRetriever
Function SupplyPageOfData( _
ByVal lowerPageBoundary As Integer, ByVal rowsPerPage As Integer) _
As DataTable
End Interface
public interface IDataPageRetriever
{
DataTable SupplyPageOfData(int lowerPageBoundary, int rowsPerPage);
}
The DataRetriever Class
The following code example defines the DataRetriever class, which implements the IDataPageRetriever interface to retrieve pages of data from a server. The DataRetriever class also provides Columns and RowCount properties, which the DataGridView control uses to create the necessary columns and to add the appropriate number of empty rows to the Rows collection. Adding the empty rows is necessary so that the control will behave as though it contains all the data in the table. This means that the scroll box in the scroll bar will have the appropriate size, and the user will be able to access any row in the table. The rows are filled by the CellValueNeeded event handler only when they are scrolled into view.

The Cache Class
The following code example defines the Cache class, which manages two pages of data populated through an IDataPageRetriever implementation. The Cache class defines an inner DataPage structure, which contains a DataTable to store the values in a single cache page and which calculates the row indexes that represent the upper and lower boundaries of the page.
The Cache class loads two pages of data at construction time. Whenever the CellValueNeeded event requests a value, the Cache object determines if the value is available in one of its two pages and, if so, returns it. If the value is not available locally, the Cache object determines which of its two pages is farthest from the currently displayed rows and replaces the page with a new one containing the requested value, which it then returns.
Assuming that the number of rows in a data page is the same as the number of rows that can be displayed on screen at once, this model allows users paging through the table to efficiently return to the most recently viewed page.

Additional Considerations
The previous code examples are provided as a demonstration of just-in-time data loading. You will need to modify the code for your own needs to achieve maximum efficiency. At minimum, you will need to choose an appropriate value for the number of rows per page of data in the cache. This value is passed into the Cache constructor. The number of rows per page should be no less than the number of rows that can be displayed simultaneously in your DataGridView control.
For best results, you will need to conduct performance testing and usability testing to determine the requirements of your system and your users. Several factors that you will need to take into consideration include the amount of memory in the client machines running your application, the available bandwidth of the network connection used, and the latency of the server used. The bandwidth and latency should be determined at times of peak usage.
To improve the scrolling performance of your application, you can increase the amount of data stored locally. To improve startup time, however, you must avoid loading too much data initially. You may want to modify the Cache class to increase the number of data pages it can store. Using more data pages can improve scrolling efficiency, but you will need to determine the ideal number of rows in a data page, depending on the available bandwidth and the server latency. With smaller pages, the server will be accessed more frequently, but will take less time to return the requested data. If latency is more of an issue than bandwidth, you may want to use larger data pages.
