>When all you want to do is poping up a maintainance form for unfiltered main tables (Articles, clients, employees) where the default is non-filtered you don't want a delay of a few seconds. The form should pop-up inmediately.

Walter,

I design for scalability and Client/Server access. I never pop up a maintenance form with a full recordset loaded. In my forms, the user specifies what they want and then I get that for them.
