# PageSize Property (ADO)
Indicates how many records constitute one page in the [Recordset](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/recordset-object-ado.md).  
  
## Settings and Return Values  
 Sets or returns a **Long** value that indicates how many records are on a page. The default is **10**.  
  
## Remarks  
 Use the **PageSize** property to determine how many records make up a logical page of data. Establishing a page size allows you to use the [AbsolutePage](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/absolutepage-property-ado.md) property to move to the first record of a particular page. This is useful in Web-server scenarios when you want to allow the user to page through data, viewing a certain number of records at a time.  
  
 This property can be set at any time, and its value will be used for calculating the location of the first record of a particular page.  
  
## Applies To
