Do compressed forms perform better in a network? If yes, what is the best way to compress all the forms in a database globally? If I understand correctly, when you set compress on in the form designer settings, you have to save each form individually in order to get the form compressed. Would unloading all the forms, changing the setting to compress and reloading the forms get them all compressed? TIA

Javier, In the Plug-In Power Pack, there is a plug-in that can compress or uncompress all your forms at once. It's an add-on product. There are many useful plugins in the Power Pack besides that one.
Here's how: CONNECT dbname -- For R:BASE 7.6 for Windows PLUGIN RFormPacker76.RBL vResult -- For R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows PLUGIN RFormPacker80.RBL vResult Notice the list of forms Use [Ctrl + A] to select all forms Click on [Compress Selected Form(s)] button That's all there is to it! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
