- Clink was dead

George, the best commercial integration option available
for MV right now is
the Pick Data Provider .NET from Raining Data.
But doesn't .NET take up like a gazillion bytes of space?
And doesn't integration require an object?
As in... integration with .. what?

Have you sized your UV file correctly? The 15-20 seconds suggests many
things are not as they should be.
Can you do an ANALYZE.FILE on this file and post the details. If it is a
dynamic hashed file include the option STATS please.
We may be able to help you after all.
Cheers
Trevor
