I guess u had 2.5 million records splited into 1600 tables if iam not wrong :)

Since 2.5 million records to 1600 is a huge count on nos of tables :( instead of one ;) --Praj On Tue, 14 Mar 2006 07:14:52 -0400 "Paul Halliday" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > One of the databases I use just switched to using merge tables and now > my queries are painfully slow.
