Hanging on Value List fields

[lamBRETTa]

Here is the deal...

I have a field defined as a pop up list (not menu) of a certain

value list. In browse mode, when you click on the field there is a

significant delay until the list shows up. Any ideas what is causing this?

It is very annoying as well as interrupting the daily work flow. This can not

happen if i am on the phone with a client and need info. pronto.

Thanks for any help.

How is your value list defined?

[lamBRETTa]

It doesn't seem to matter how the field is defined.

It hangs if it is defined as 'from another field', 'value list from another file', or even 'custom values'. There is a delay in all cases.

Hmmm....

Well...i found a category exclusively for Value lists and after scanning through it, it appears that other people are having the same peoblem as i am.

Looks like it is a FM7 bug.

Thanks anyways.

Its related to the number of windows open at the time - it gets slower the more FileMaker windows that exist.
