>Hi Jos, the problem is defenetly related to the network, it runs fast if I doisconnect the PC from the Lan, but I have to restart the application, and it get slower and slower when the pc is connected.

Probably some trouble finding paths / searching too many paths, one of the oncompatibilities of newer servers with old clients or perhaps SourceSafe (if saved to the net) can bring ...mmmm... not welcome side effects.
