So the performance hit is when the user opens the app/form for the first time?
What factors altered would produce another performance hit? ReComplile and deploy? In my example the biggest visible drag was on the XMLReader(). I tried adding records to the xml file and it still ran fast so what is it doing the first time that slows it down? JIT? thanks, >Heheheh... no problem.
