Jan & Larry,
I do not have indexing on any of the fields. Being a novice at programming, I watch the list when questions come through on indexing and am confused as to when to use them. It seems in some instances the list says not to use them and in other use them. I will have to try that.

The orders table has 20,000 plus rows and it is taking ten seconds or more for each keystroke to search the records. What can I do to make the process faster? I just updated to the latest 7.6. >> What is the search you are executing in the ON KEYPRESS event? If it's non-indexed, expect it to take a few seconds. -- Larry
