Ooops, something went wrong. sorry for the empty message.

Daniel,

>It's possible that the size of the structural CDX is a factor. You don't have control of how Fox handles the CDX, but I have seen where deleting some of the CDX tags (moving them to separate IDX files, or just doing away with them) has increased file-open performance over a slow WAN.

I'm sure the CDX files do have impact on performance (after all they've got to be buffered too). However switching to IDX files is not a suitable alternative.

It's not that i've got real problems here, but I think this might be some issue that can be optimized and could help us VFP folks with slow form instantiation. In the past there were some troubles with forms with lots of objects, but today I think the most common cause of slow form instantiation is caused by loading the dataenvironment (and the misuse of the DELETED() tag, but thats another story). It would be nice if this could be optimized.

Walter,
