 Slow loading form Hello, I have a form of roughly 225 k (frm size) and since a while the form takes
a minute to load, this used to be 10 seconds.
How can i debug what is happening under water while the form is loaded, why
is this taking so long.
Greetings Sukkel

Slow loading form have you tried to put breakpoints to follow the execution?

Slow loading form Hi Rick, I have a splash screen ! But it takes a minute for the complete app (just a
local 600k exe on a PII 350) to start this splash screen. I wish to debug to
app to look under water to know what is going on under the hood.

Slow loading form and.... the question is? howdo i start debugging? There's a whole menu on the Debug Items.. you can Add breakpoints, or event
just step through your program from the start... (instead of F5 or Ctrl-F5,
use F8 - Step)...
10 sec to 1 min is a long time.... what are you doing on startup?

Slow loading form might be just you aren't giving your splash screen a chance to refresh/paint. DoEvents might be needed. That still doesn't fix your problem of a slow start, but at least your end user will have something to look at while they wait. --

Slow loading form Just put a break point in the initialize event and step through the de{*filter*}
one line of code at a time. If your form is populating a control or
recordset from a database as part of it's load step, then perhaps the amount
of data being processed is getting larger. Perhaps the network connection to
the database has been bumped down from 100mps to 10mbs or 56k for some
reason. Also, 225k seems like a lot of bloat. Try moving some of your
functions to a seperate module or class.

Start the program by pressing F8. This will step you thru the program line by line. BTW, if you're program takes a minute to load, something (or many
things) are seriously wrong.
