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.
