<p>Hi Tammy,</p>
<p>I remember that, a long time ago, I had the same problem with a FM 7.2 installation.</p>
<p>For reasons I ignore FM created log-files for any file operation in the windows temp folder, many thousands of them in only a few months, in the course of which any kind of file-handling became slower and slower.</p>
<p>Maybe you could check this. <br />Unfortunately I do not remember where exactly these files were located and what extension they had. But if once you know this you can delete them easily from time to time to regain the usual speed. (-- Other question would be why these files were produced...)</p>
<p>Best regards -</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; color: #1f497d;">Thank you to everyone for all their insight into this issue. I have received a myriad of onlist and offlist responses, and they range from others having identical issues and not being able to resolve them to some resolution depending on if you turned off graphics, pods, etc. One interesting comment that was made to me offlist on a few occasions was that the problem seemed to really come to the forefront after the last few rounds of Windows updates, and that is truly something that I have noticed as well. A few people commented that overall FM 10 response in almost every aspect was noticeably slowed after this last round of updates and this was working local or w/ both the files and graphics stored on a network. For now, I am going to keep all pods closed and be somewhat thankful that I am pretty keyboard driven for commands (which harks back to my days on older versions of FM and my age in general </span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: #1f497d;">J</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; color: #1f497d;">). I really do need to keep the graphics displayed as I write for a variety of reasons, but if that ultimately becomes the real showstopper, I will just have to work my way around that as well. I am sooooooo tired of all these issues w/ newer versions of FM. FM 7.2 and 8.0 were just as solid as a rock and quality just seems to be going downhill exponentially w/ every subsequent release.<!-- o ignored --></span></p>
