Sorry. (God I hate this editor...)

Anyway, let me finish my stats:

All that over the internet takes anywhere from 2 minutes when it's in a good mood to 10 minutes when VSS is a bit cranky. <s>

>100mb connection.

>188 programs
>153 libraries
>48 reports
>1 database with 115 tables and 298 views not under source control

>>I have the same versions. There could be any number of problems but I highly doubt the cause is restricted to the VFP/VSS combination. Here's an example of one of my projects you can compare to and see if it gives some ideas:
>>
>>VFP 6.0 SP3 on local drive PII 200 with 64M RAM
>>VSS 6.0 Database on Netware server and VSS 6.0 client on local machine (connected with 100mbit ethernet)
>>
>>Project (under source control i.e. PJM file in VSS) contains:
>>1 program under source control managed through PM
>>23 forms under source control managed through PM
>>12 reports under source control managed through PM
>>2 class libraries under source control NOT managed through PM (I use VSS Explorer for these because they are used for multiple projects)
>>1 database with approx 30+ tables NOT under source control
>>
>>All files, when checked out, are on my local drive. This project takes approximately 8-10 seconds to open. HTH
>>
>>>Version 6.0 sp3 of VFP and 6.0 of VSS. I did try packing the project as well as DBC with a slight impovement in speed, but not much.
>>>
>>>
>>>>What version of VFP and VSS? I've been using both since version 5 and though a project under source control does take longer to open I've never had delays like this.

>>>>>Has anyone else had performance problems opening VFP projects which are under source control using Visual Source Safe? We have the source safe database on a fast server with multiple 100mbit cards to the network and it still takes anywhere from 2-8 minutes to open our projects. Suggestions?
