There is no other software running on the slow Laptop. Ours is a closed Ethernet Network, that is not connected to the Internet at all. So, there is no anti-virus software running. I have wondered if the slow-down problem stems from Windows 11 not being able to get to the Internet, but...

Nothing else is running on the Windows 11 Laptop that slowly, consistently slows down as it runs our fe database. Initially I said it slowed down over about an hour, but in reality I can begin to see a slow down within 15 min. or running the fe database. To put a few more details around my...

Doc Man, I have done a major experiment that makes me think that there is actually something subtle wrong with this Windows 11 PC. When I substitute my wife's Windows 11 Laptop into the System in place of the problem Windows 11 Computer, the slow-down problem goes away. Ther's is a Windows 11...

I am running a split Access 2007 database at a non-profit Food Pantry. Previously there have been two Win. 10 laptops talking to a Win. 10 Desktop. Due to a laptop failure, we have had to introduce a Win. 11 Laptop (I3, 16 Gb or RAM) into the System. We find that the Win. 11 Laptop runs fine...

A General Thank You for everyone who helped me and our Food Pantry with Persistent Connection. I have installed the needed code, etc. at our Food Pantry, and forms are opening much, much faster. What used to take 8-9 seconds to open now only takes 2-3 seconds. Thank you all SO MUCH for your...

I am confident that, at the time I see "Access Not Responding", no other task is running on the back-end Desktop Computer.

Doc Man, I am terribly sorry that my reply seemed like a complaint to you. It was certainly not meant that way! I simply provided information about our Ethernet Switch, as was requested. I honestly don't even see anything in what I wrote that could be taken as a complaint. Thank you again...

I appreciate the explanation of Persistent Connection! I will work on making that happen. However, I am confused in that I thought several of you had told me "the Ethernet Switch definitely has to go to speed up the Database Operation". I thought that advice had to do with Persistent...

You guys have been giving me advice that my slow database situation probably results from NOT having a "persistent connection" to Access, because there are two Laptops talking to a Desktop Server via Ethernet Cables THROUGH an Ethernet switch. That switch means that each of my two users is...

Thanks for your reply! I have gone and looked at the suggested code to maintain a Persistent Connection and I will put that code in to see what happens. I am not currently sure where that code goes - i.e., as specific module, front end, back end, etc? I will try to figure that out. Do you...

My name is Ron Cochran. I am a retired Ph.D. Analytical Chemist, and I am currently volunteering at Mother Hubbard's Non-Profit Food Pantry (we give out groceries to needy people) in Wilmington, NC.. We run an Access Database Application, which was written by a guy named Bob Alston and is...

I am running a fairly elaboraete (many large tables; much VBA Code) Access Database Application at at Non-Profit Food Pantry. It runs under Access 2007 and is split into front end and back end databases. I find that the database is quite fast, when only one user is logged on. As soon as a...
