Random-access record sources are read-only, positionable record sources that can be read more that once. They require more effort to implement and might have extremely large storage requirements. However, they offer a much richer client interface. A record source view, for example, might be written to accept a random-access record source rather than a read-once record source. Random-access record sources should be used for dynamic record browsing with a cursor, such as in a spreadsheet.
