Hi Floyd

Check if that *infernal* Indexing Service is running.

Click Start, and then click Control Panel. Double-click Administrative Tools, then double-click Computer Management.

In the console tree, double-click Services and Applications.
Double-click Indexing Service.



>I'm trying to develop on a new generic XP pro 2.66GHz machine with both VFP 8 and VS.Net installed. The constant waits while the OS goes out to stare into the weeds for 10-45 seconds periodically is driving me nuts. Is anyone else out there having any similar problems? I've been on-line with MS for a couple of weeks now trying to beat this thing into submission and I'm about ready to wipe it and to back to W2K.
