Hello, I have a question dealing with performance problems when using the VB FindFirst command. When I use this command on tables in Access I have around 3x faster performance than when i use the FindFirst command on SQL attached tables. I have noticed significant improvement in times when opening recordsets as snapshots vs dynasets, but still have the same performance problem... Its more like 5 or more times faster on dynasets than snapshots.

My problem is that in a database i'm working on there are quite a few times that I call FindFirst on some SQL attached tables and i need to use dynasets.. I need to know if there is a better way to retrieve the records from SQL attached tables and a short explantion of how to do so, and I would also be grateful if anyone could explain the reason behind the performance difference...
Thanks,
Netooi
