Hi foxers
I have just come back from Papua New Guinea where I have several
clients using some customised one-off packages.
I needed to add some specific routines and took the opportunity to
upgrade from VFP6 to 9.
Oh horror of horrors. The following day, 2 of them called me and asked
what on earth I had done !!
Both programs (different programs altogether) have a specific routine
of replacing a field with a computed field. The field is a simple
numeric field and the number is updated according to the exchange rate
of the day. The number of records is about 10,000.
On my laptop it takes less than 2 secs. With VFP6, on the workstation,
it takes less than 10 secs. With VFP9 it takes anywhere from 5 to 10
mins.
Re-indexing all tables takes less than this !!
I've turned AV off, no difference.
I've run the application over T/Server and it takes less than 10 secs
I've gone grey
