Hi everyone,

I am trying to implement MajP's FAYT solution for a combobox, as discussed in the following post and MajP's provided solution "(MajP FAYT V12, class module: FindAsYouTypeCombo) (topic: "Search as you type with in Combobox / instant filter combobox itself" < cannot post the link)

I am using a linked table from an Azure SQL Server as the data source for the combobox. This linked table contains the following two coloms:

Table Structure:

-IngredientId: Primary key, initially set as an identity column. I removed the identity setting to avoid needing dbSeeChanges, which significantly slowed down performance.

-Ingredient: Originally set as varchar(1500), reduced to varchar(255) due to combobox character limits, even though some ingredients exceed this limit.-

-Number of Records: Approximately 20.000.

Unfortunately, I am encountering performance issues. The database frequently crashes, and the combobox response is slow. I suspect the issue may caused by the DAO connection but i am not sure.

Has anyone successfully implemented MajP's solution with large linked SQL Server tables (20.000+ records) in Access? Any tips on optimizing the DAO connection or general advice to improve performance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any insights!

i am guessing that even with ordinary combobox, it will still Load slow considering the rowsource of your combo is not a Local table.
