No, the rowsource for my grids are views and I am using NoDataOnLoad set to True. I have textboxes on the first tab of a pageframe that are bound to a table but that table only has 20,000 records. I have 2 views one based on each of the very large tables.

>Hmmmm.......Do you have any grids, listboxs, or comboboxes where the rowsource is one of the big tables? That could be the slowdown. You could use views with NoDataOnLoad set to True, and then selectively requery.
