If I understand all this correctly it means, VFP works great as long as there is only 1 user but if there are to be multiple users, and if there is a significant amount of data, all views had better be totally optimized or you will have results such as I am getting. I would even say just optimizing is not good enough, you had better test any new views with multiple users to ensure they run fast enough.

OK, that's a good data point. You haven't said whether you tested with your own dev/test data, or a copy of the customer's data (or both?).

Assuming there's no effective difference in the results using different data sets, then it looks like a performance problem in your app. I'll discuss further in the other branch of this thread.
