Peter,

>>I was running some test on VFP 5 vs VFP 6 because my client found that 6 was much slower when using SQL. After much testing of different versions on different machines with different environments (WIN 98, Win 2000 Prof, NT WkSt and NT Server) I concluded that the difference was: Version 6 is much slower if you don't have a DELETED() Tag in your .CDX and use Set Deleted ON. It didn't seem to make much difference in VFP 5. Hope this helps. There may be some of my questions/answers in the "search" area.

>I have a largish (40-50 terminals) system running under VFP 5.0. I've been thinking I should upgrade to VFP 6.0. I would hate to see the processing slowdown.

>Have you tried compiling VFP 5.0 under Win2K? I'm getting about 4-6 C5 errors a day just working with the builder.

Have you applied the last service pack (SP5) for VFP 6. It should clear your problem. Also make sure your system does use good HP printer drivers. Some are notorious because of causing problems in programming languages like FoxPro.

In general I can say that I have not experienced any speeddegration when using table operations like SQL and others using rushmore. Not even under Win2K.

Ohhh.. and don't use DELETED() tags. They're often the cause of performance degration.
