I have a VB/Crystal program that is on a client machine that connect to a access database on the server. &nbsp;The program works except when running the crystal reports it takes longer (5 mins to access and read the data). &nbsp;If I was to run the program directly from crystal on the client machine it takes half of the time. &nbsp;I'm thinking there is something missing from the VB program, but I don't know what it is. &nbsp;Can anyone help me?<br />

Network Speed with Crystal and Visual Basic

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.

Microsoft Development

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
