Hi Gary,

>I am reposting this question. Does anyone know whether FPW 2.6a (with the MS Fast Processor patch) will run on P4 class chips running at 2ghz+ ?

You may get into trouble when loading listboxes or scrolling in listboxes by keyboard. I have the fast computer patch applied, but in our applications we sometimes get "Out of memory" errors with listboxes. There is a workaround for this by doing the following:

Instead of binding the listbox to a field like client.name
in a table directly, you can use a function call like ShowRecs()

function ShowRecs
private BufferA, BufferB, BufferC
m.BufferA="qwrtqriqpe"
m.BufferB="ajlgjalskfjg"
m.BufferC="mgfreqgoegrqo"
return client.name

This slows the whole thing down, in order to keep FP's internal timing. You may use as many variables as you need until the error disappears.
