Hiya,

My setup is: XP Home (Fat32 file system, pre installed for some reason!
and 512 MB RAM)
Firebird 2 RC1
MS Access 2003
Lates IBPhoenix ODBC version 2 (Beta)

Everthing seems to be working fine, except for one strange event. If I
have the DB open it works just as expected, but should I accidentally
close the DB and then re-open it virtually immediately, there's a pause
of up to 5 seconds before a form opens. This doesn;'t happen when I open
the DB first time so it doesn't feel like a delay in the ODBC
connection. (But what do I know?)

Anybody had this, and if not, any suggestions of how to fine tune
Firebird and\or the ODBC driver or Access to run smoothly. Apart from
this minor irriation whch I'm personally happy to ignore, I'd recommend
roll out of Firebird to my small business colleagues who are MARRIED to
Access. This ONE glitch is stopping me. :-(

Thanks in advance,

Rob Davis
