I discovered the problem. ALL of my components on the form are NOT active
including my connection. In my form constructor, was then connecting. I
have the LoginPrompt property set to false. For some reason, it is creating
its own connection with out me telling it connect in the constructor.. not
sure why. I simply removed MY connect out of the constructor, works fine. I
doesnt seem that it should connect until I tell it to, but thats ok. I
combed through every line of code so see If I was connecting somewhere in
the code, but Im not.
It has to do with the loginPrompt. I think even with that set to false, it
should only connect after I have either tried a query or Set
Connected:=True;

Anyway, this seemed to be my delay problem.
