Do all DLookup expressions take a long time to run, or only a particular
one? If there's a particular DLookup expression that's taking a long
time, maybe you are looking up data in a query that itself takes a long
time. Or else you may be applying a criterion that is very slow to
evaluate. If it is a particular expression, post the DLookup expression
so we can see what may be wrong with it, and if it's based on a query,
you may want to post the query's SQL, too.

Is your DLookup extracting data from a local table, or an external table
that is only linked to the database the function is running in?
