Hi Vlad,

I did split the database in two, but I didn't install the application database locally. Because there were too many updates, I thought it'd be easier to leave the database on the network drive (since this is an internal application, I can put my updates there and don't need to go around copying files everywhere). Now I see there is a big difference if I put the application locally (just tested it). I wonder why I haven't thought of trying this.

Still I wonder where this difference comes from. Having the application on the network, a form can take several minutes to load, now it's just a few seconds. Do you have an explanation for this? In the time it takes to load a form, I can copy the whole database 20 times from the server to my local drive. This seems ridiculous to me. Is there a logical explanation?

Thanks for helping.

Auke
