Karen, all, I pretty much moved away from multi-table forms and replaced them with Variable Lookup Listview forms. If they to work on individual records, then they can click on the row and work on it in a separate form. Extra work for user, less network slowdown. However it may be a net effect.

I did find out that the process slows down opening a multi-table form. I run test at my client and It seems to work fine when there is only 1 user when it opens the form in under 2 seconds, but when other users log in it takes close to 1 minute. I am not sure if the issue is software or server/network related. Their undersized server runs Windows Server 2008 and recently they have it running their VOIP as well. I have a utility I developed a while back to test network speed by moving a large file from and to the network and recording times; it should provide some insight into what is going on. Suggestions are always welcome and appreciated.

Let me know as it is not very complicated. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] [mailto:[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]?]] On Behalf Of Javier Valencia Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2015 4:47 PM To: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Subject: [RBASE-L] - Tracing I am trying to trace an application to see where the delays are. I have added command such as this: PAUSE 3 USING 'Calling WO Form from List Form...' CAPTION 'System Message' ICON INFO At different places to indicate/keep track where the process is but the messages get displayed behind the form(s) and I cannot see them. Is there a way to keep the PAUSE message in the foreground? Javier, Javier Valencia, PE O: 913-829-0888 H: 913-397-9605 C: 913-915-3137
