>Our conclusion is VFP integration with VSS is simply slow.
Wrong conclusion, actually. I wish I could tell you how to speed things up, but as I indicated in another thread, I have a project with about 120 forms/reports, and it only takes 7-14 seconds to open up the whole project. Checking in and out is reasonably snappy, too... I do have a fast machine, admittedly, but not obscenely so... :-)
