Hi Experts, Iam facing a performance related problem with my application which is having an ultarlite database and do query the tables based on user input during run time. In short, based on search criteria from the user the application will be querying ultarlite tables which hold the data on the device. My problem is, the processing speed of my application get relatively slowdown on running the query more number of times (say 8-10times). >From the Docs I read that SQL query involving "like% " does hit the performance. I just replaced it, but with not much change in performance speed. BTW Once I exit from the application and enter, the speed will be normal and get slower again after few transactions. Can any body throw light on these perfomance issues pls Thankful for any kind of advice vijaybabu -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
