Karen:
An additional idea -
Make sure that the Scratch files are directed to the users' local TEMP
directory rather than to a network share.
Razzak has documented a great way to do this on R:Syntax.

| Subject: Can we revisit W2K slowness?
|
>---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
I KNOW we have rehashed this a dozen times but how about
one more time?
I'm about to go live on a DOS-to-Windows conversion (up to date
version of RBWin) on a W2K network with Win98 workstations. Their
current 6.5+ DOS just flies and has never had any problems under
this network. The speed is great and I've never had memory leakage
problems. In the testing phase of RBWin, they're all complaining
about how slow everything is. Of course, the one initial CONNECT
takes about 5 seconds. There's a form based on a 1-row dummy table
that can take 10 seconds to load. The application flies on a local
drive. Again the main user form is brought up based on a primary
key search, same thing -- can take 10 seconds to come up.
Immediate if it's local.
I went back and reread all the email I've been saving about this topic.
There's no App.Exp so there's no extra connects around. I read
about tweaking Norton AV settings (which I know they have) and will
do that. I also read about a possible 'time out' fix
(Net Config Server /autodisconnect:-1) so will try that too.
Any other tips that people have found lately? Their network guys
support other RBase clients, so are familiar with the product, and
they point their fingers back at us.
