CPU usage pegged when in Report Design

Guest

Hi,

I'm experiencing extremely poor CPU performance when in design view for a
somewhat complex report based on a crosstab query. The report has no
formulas on the surface, although it does have some line drawing VB code on
its On Page event. Every move I make in design view is painfully slow -- I'm
talking 10-15 seconds to resize a label, nudge a text box... anything and
everything takes forever. In my Windows Task Manager, it shows CPU Usage
pegged at 100% everytime I do anything in this report's design. The report
itself doesn't take very long to run. But I'm going to have a heart attack
waiting for every move I make. Any ideas of why this might be happening?
It's not happening on any other reports or forms in this db, or in any other
application on my PC ( Dell Latitude C610
Pentium III processor; 996 MHz; 512 MB Ram).

TIA for any ideas,
Steve Vincent

Have you entered all possible column headings in the Column Headings
property?
Is the report set to use the default printer? Is the default printer
available?
