In the file web_store.cgi under the section:

    ########################################
    #  create_html_page_from_db Subroutine #
    ########################################

I replaced the line:

    ($status,$total_row_count) = 
        &submit_query(*database_rows);

With the following:

    ($status,$total_row_count) = 
    &submit_query(*database_rows, 
                  $form_data{'hits_seen'});
    $hits_seen = $form_data{'hits_seen'} + 
                 $sc_db_max_rows_returned;

Then, in the file web_store_db_lib.pl, there is a subroutine that begins with:

    ########################################
    # subroutine: submit_query             #
    ########################################

I replaced the following code:

    sub submit_query
        {
        local(*database_rows) = @_;

with:

    sub submit_query
        {
        local(*database_rows, $hits_seen) = @_;

then further down in that same subroutine, replace:

while(($line = <DATAVIRTUAL> ) &&
      ($row_count < 
       $sc_db_max_rows_returned + 1))

with:

while(($line = <DATAVIRTUAL> ) &&
      ($row_count < 
       $sc_db_max_rows_returned + $hits_seen))

Further down still in the same subroutine, replace:

    if (($not_found == 0) && 
        ($row_count <= 
         $sc_db_max_rows_returned))

with:

    $adjusted_line_number = 
        $sc_db_max_rows_returned +
        $hits_seen;
    if (($not_found == 0) && 
        ($row_count <= 
         $adjusted_line_number) &&
         $row_count >= $hits_seen)

The last file that I modified was web_store_html_lib.pl in the section:

    ########################################
    # product_page_footer Subroutine       #
    ########################################

I replaced the following routine:

    if ($db_status ne "") 
        {
        if ($db_status =~ 
            /max.*row.*exceed.*/i) 
            {
            $warn_message = qq!
            <CENTER>
            <BLOCKQUOTE>
            Your query returned $total_rows_
            returned.  This is more than
            the maximum we allow 
            ($sc_db_max_rows_returned). 
            You will need to restrict your 
            query further. </BLOCKQUOTE>
            </CENTER><P>!;
            }
        }

with:

    if ($total_rows_returned >= 
        $hits_seen) 
        {
        $warn_message = qq!
        <CENTER>
        <INPUT TYPE = "hidden" 
                  NAME = "hits_seen" 
                  VALUE= "$hits_seen">
        <INPUT TYPE = "submit" 
                  NAME = "search_request_button"  
                  VALUE = "See the next 
                          $sc_db_max_rows_returned

        </CENTER>:<P>!;
    }
