Form Takes a Long Time to Load

[L.A. Lawyer]

I have several forms, all with some programming behind them, that take a
long time (up to 30 seconds) to load, causing the end users to think that
the program has crashed (and it sometimes does).

What types of programming or other issues could cause this? What should I
be avoiding during the "OnCurrent" event? (The loading problem, however,
seems to only happen when the form is opened, not when we go through the
other records.)

If you have the Name AutoCorrect option enabled, try turning it off and
see if that makes a difference.
