>>Hi Jamie,
>> I also recently upgraded from 5.0a->6.0 and saw the same thing. I asked Randy Brown about this at FoxTeach in Toronto this past weekend, and he seemed surprised. MS seems to think 6.0 is not slower. If you can send them timings and a small piece of code that they could execute under both 5.0a and 6.0, they might check it out. I think it's important that MS know that we developers are consistently seeing a slower product.

>Microsoft has acknowledged this to be a bug with 6.0 on their support page. Hopefully they'll create a fix. Thanks for all the replies.

Just for everyone's information, MS says one of the problems it resolved in the service pack released today is "Poor Performance with Forms Containing Many Objects." You can get the full list of fixes at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/sp/vfpfixes.asp
