Please let me know any other good idea to display for faster results.

Alot of thought needs to be put into how to code a page. IMO coding it is the complicated part however how it should be put together is more important. Is the select box you speak of being displayed 10 times on the same page? I cant imagine why you would do this, Im sure there is a good reason. If you need the data, you need the data.

I would reccomend the good old practice of placing your recordset (RS) into an array, closing and getting rid of your connection, then use the array where you need it.

Personally - I would get annoyed with a select list containing thousands of records however do realize there is a need for this on occasion.

Hi,

I agree with Mat41. Why would you require a page with same dropdown appearing 10 times?

The other approach you could go for is...
Write ASP code to fetch data from the database and populate the first dropdown. Render the HTML to the browser and on OnLoad of the page write a JavaScript function to copy List Box data/values from first dropdown to the other 9 dropdowns in the page. This will be slightly faster for the person browsing the site.
