From: Roger Bell on
I have installed an Access Data Base on a server and linked the Tables to
several Remote computers. Some of these remotes are in another building,
some 100 metres away and networked via underground cabling.

These remotes take quite awhile for the data to load on their machines. Is
it because of the distance, and/or is there any way I can speed the retrieval
up?

Many thanks for any help

Electricity moves at 186,000 miles per second. I doubt if distance is the
problem. Performance issues are addressed here:
