If you're using filters, be aware that grids are apparently not Rushmore "compatible". Take a look at the SET KEY command (if you want to use tables directly) or better yet, explore using views to populate the grids.

If I add them incrementally I'll see the load time increase incrementally. Grid recordsourcetype is set as alias - many of the grid access the same dbf, just changing order of columns, etc.
