    Parameters

    behavior
    One of the System.Data.CommandBehavior values.
    startRecord
    Specifies the number of starting record of the set of records to be returned.
    maxRecords
    Specifies total number of records to retrieve.

    Remarks

    Use method ExecutePageReader when you want to retrieve not the whole dataset but some part of it that begins with given row number and has certain quantity of rows. This is especially useful when working with large amounts of data.

    If you want to retrieve all data in a dataset, use ExecuteReader() instead.

    Note: This method is not supported in .NET Standard 1.3 compatible assembly. It is available only in the assembly for full .NET Framework and .NET Standard 2.0 compatible assembly.

    Example
    The example below shows how to retrieve a part of a table. If this function is called with parameters startRecord=2 and maxRecords=3, it returns 3 rows: second, third, and fourth.
    public void ExecutePaged(MySqlConnection myConnection, int StartRow, int PageLength)
    {
      MySqlCommand myCommand = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Test.Dept", myConnection);
      myConnection.Open();
      MySqlDataReader myReader = myCommand.ExecutePageReader(System.Data.CommandBehavior.Default,StartRow,PageLength);
      try
      {
        while (myReader.Read())
        {
          Console.WriteLine(myReader.GetInt32(0) + ", " + myReader.GetString(1) + ", " + myReader.GetString(2));
        }
      }
      finally
      {
        myReader.Close();
        myConnection.Close();
      }
    }
    Public Sub ExecutePaged(ByVal myConnection As MySqlConnection, ByVal StartRow As Integer, ByVal PageLength As Integer)
      Dim myCommand As New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Test.Dept", myConnection)
      myConnection.Open()
      Dim myReader As MySqlDataReader = myCommand.ExecutePageReader(System.Data.CommandBehavior.Default, StartRow, PageLength)
      Try
        While myReader.Read()
          Console.WriteLine(myReader.GetInt32(0).ToString() + ", " _
          + myReader.GetString(1) + ", " _
          + myReader.GetString(2))
        End While
      Finally
        myReader.Close()
        myConnection.Close()
      End Try
    End Sub
