The reason why I brought this up is because during DevCon, I heard a lot of talk about SYS(3050) and how you can set your foreground and background memory buffers and how these settings could significantly improve performance. Apparently, there was an article in the FoxTalk Feb. 1997 issue regarding this and memory. I can see how if you knew the PC you were installing your app on you could test to get the best performance, however, how could something like this be done on multiple installations where you do not know the PC it will be installed on. Can you elaborate more on these issues?

TIA, again...
