[AccessD] How do you change the priority permanently for MsAccess

Hi Ed

Sorry I don't know the answer, but it must be possible, as in your observation of Task Manager.  Have you tried using
the 'DOS' START command?  I haven't, but it might be worth investigating.

I am curious about one thing in your setup, though.  If as I infer your application is not competing with anything for
processor time, how much difference does altering the priority make?

Subject: [AccessD] How do you change the priority permanently for MsAccess

 Question:

 While using Win7, how do you change the priority permanently for MsAccess.exe ?

 Notes:

 I have a dual processor 3.7 gigabyte system using Windows7 Pro 64bit.

 This computer's main mission, its only mission, is to run an app written 
 in Access-2003 32bit VBA several times per day quickly.

 What I have been doing to get the desired performance is do a Ctrl-Control-Delete 
 to start the Program-Manager.

 Then adjust that msAccess job's priority by hand.

 I been doing this by hand for the last year.

 Since I about to turn this over to another person it would most helpful
 to automate this priority changing process.

 By the way, I have noticed that when the Program-Manager starts up with
 it's priority already set to high.

 Thus that is a big clue such an action is possible. 

 I would like to do the same for MsAccess.exe program launches.

 Hopeing that there some Databaseadvisors.com  knowledge on this subject. 

 Any idea's on how to do that ?

 Thanks.

 Sincerely,
 Ed Zuris.
