Thanks for all the very diverse answers. Up to now, some progress but not much.
1 - I have added the Dword MaxFiles (100) and it seems that it help the edit function, but the sql is still going in rounds. 2 - My test files contain between 5 and 20 objects; it is thus not a question of very large files, memory leaks etc. 3 - I subscribe to the automatic update for Windows 2000. That could be an avenue to explore, but I do not know how to proceed. I have been using MI sporadically over the last 4 months and it would be difficult for me to pinpoint the possibly culprit (up)date. I am considering reinstalling windows2000 with the SP2 patch with which MI was working correctly. I'll update this summary when I get something new.
