When the map first comes up at Full Extent only some of the features display
Do you mean that the full extent is not the right one (i.e. there are features outside of the full extent) or that some features are not visible despite they are supposed to be in the current extent?
I need a feature class because I need the "Where" method.
If your map service is not cached, you might also use a map service layer definition to filter the objects (just another option, faeture layer shoud work as well).

Yes the full extent is right either way (using a feature class or dynamic). Its just missing alot of features when I use the featurelayer. My map is not cache. Its almost as if its capping the features at a set number. I would not think is would be looking at the maxrecordcount in cfg file.
How do you set the layer definition on the ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer? What method? Do you have an simple code example?

The service may have reached its limit of how many features it can return at once (the default is 500 for ArcGIS Server 9.3.1, 1000 for ArcGIS Server 10, 1000 for MapIt). In this case, try with the OnDemand mode (see sample).

You are right, when using FeatureLayer Snapshot mode (default), the service may have reached its limit of how many features it can return at once. The default is 500 for ArcGIS Server 9.3.1 and 1000 for ArcGIS Server 10, but this limit is configurable using the Parameters tab of the Service Properties dialog box in ArcCatalog or Manager.
