>I'm assuming that you are using a VFP database and not a server database like SQL Server. Using VFP data over a WAN can be problematic. The first thing you need to do is make sure that your parameterized views are fully Rushmore optimizable. You should also have your views return as little data as possible. This means limiting both the number of records and the number of fields that are returned.
