Thanks Cetin

Backend data huge but you don't request the whole data (sometimes might get over VFP limits). Maybe you're not using parametric views?

>>>>>I can change the version to VFP 8 or 9. But, you use ODBC and RV's in applications with huge user and data loads with no problem? I checked carefully my app, looking for possible optimizatios but mi problem is random. The computer just freezes at any time (sometimes 5-10 times a day, without giving me errors. I have the latest SPs , for VFP and the OS. Have you experienced something similar?
