Hello,

I've recently converted my db's to 7.0v3, and notice that my drop down menus have an incredible lag. With version 5, I was able to just fly through my data entry and FM was able to keep up. Now, I have to stop, pause, wait for the menu to "open" (drop down) make the selection, wait to make sure that it is actually selected in the field, and then carry on. A real waste of time...

Anyone else have this problem? Is there a quick-fix?

Thanks.

Travis.

Are you using FM Server? If so then get the latest update, increase you cache to 500 or so and flush it every 1 or 2 minutes. Also change the cache to 256 in your workstation application FMP 7on your desktop. It may help. Also make sure that if you are running FMServer 7 that you restart the server be fore changing anything. I've see that help as well. One other thing I've seen is that SSL will cause a dropdown list slowdown as well.

Are you sure you mean Drop Down Menus? Pop-up Lists in FileMaker 7 on Windows do have a very long lag. FileMaker have no solution except to suggest using Pop-up Menus instead.
