I haven't used Access 2010 as a front end so I don't know. If he is writing a routine to help highlight rows on your FE and the data has not returned, then I could see this as an explanation, but then it's also a problem on how he is accessing data from his database. There are probably many more variables such as stored procedure calls, views, indexes, proper maintenance of the database, hardware that hosts the database, etc, etc. -Francisco On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 4:29 PM, J- P wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm sorry if this is off base but I figured I'd ask, > I have a client that uses a sqlexpress BE with an access FE, every so > often the font will change and highlighted rows on the fe form will kind > lose the "highlighting" (these always occur together) , the guy that > handles / changes / updates the FE claims that this is due to sql getting > "over loaded" is there any way to prove or disprove that this is either > something in the db or the front end? > > I know its kind of vague, but any thoughts would help > > Sqlexpress 2005 with advanced features and Access 2010 > > > > TIA > > _______________________________________________ > dba-SQLServer mailing list > dba-SQLServer at databaseadvisors.com > http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-sqlserver > http://www.databaseadvisors.com > > From jnatola at hotmail.com Fri Sep 27 14:48:39 2013 From: jnatola at hotmail.com (J- P) Date: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 15:48:39 -0400 Subject: [dba-SQLServer] font change and odd highlights on Access FE In-Reply-To: References: , Message-ID: I know this is a LONG shot, but should I inquire as to how the highlight is occuring?

I want to extract all the data from DataSource 1 and then perhaps do some mods due to field-name conflicts or at least non-parallel names, and subsequently import said extract into the new db.
