Access 2007 : Slow Report Builder
Boring, but useful for anyone writing Reports in MS Access 2K7.
I found that the Report Builder was VERY slow. Every time you moved a field around, resized, etc it would lock up for a few seconds. Extremely annoying when you are trying to organize a new report.
I found that if I turned off error checking it dramatically improved the situation. Go under Office button, Access Options. Go to Object Designers and scroll down to the bottom. Under Error Checking, uncheck “check for common report errors”.
You may also want to turn off other Error checking if you find them unnecessary. Shutting that stuff off speeds up the designers.
