No the CDX doesn't get pulled locally when you open it or when you amend records.
You can test this by opening a table on the LAN in VFP, then running Sysinternals Process Monitor and filtering to process name = VFP9.EXE and path ends with .CDX. Then do some seeks and updates and you will see that it is just reading/writing chunks of the CDX on the LAN. Obviously if you're not taking advantage of Rushmore optimisation it will be doing big, time consuming scans of the DBF instead. -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/1516963648.3997131.1248902632.726e1...@webmail.messagingengine.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
