Office update 2405 17628.20110 causes slowness in loading forms in MS Access
Are you sure? Can you reproduce the bug in the Monthly Enterprise Channel?
I just did some tests myself (using a form with a lot of controls and a script similar to yours), and I get the following results with Access x64:
- Current 2408 (17928.20156): can reproduce the bug
- Monthly 2407 (17830.20210): can not reproduce the bug
Hello HeinziAT , Karl_Donaubauer,
You are right, there is a difference between 2408 Current Channel and 2407 Monthly channel.
I have tested again with the speedtest that I made when we had the issues in version 2405. WIth this form I cannot reproduce in any of these versions.
But I have found a new form which has the issue. When you have radio buttons in a grouped set. Then forms become slower. If you have the radio buttons separately, then it does not get slower.
Please find attached a test datbase. In this there is a function called Speedtest. that 50 times opens and closes a form and shows the timing for the set of 10 open-close actions.
What I see is that:
with 2406 Monthly channel, timings are stable.
with 2408 current channel, and Tabel2a (grouped radio buttons) timings increase after +/- 250 open-closes from 1,7s per 10 to 4s per 10.
With tabel2 (only radio buttons) I don't see this increase.
This is tabel2 (only radio buttons):
This is Tabel2a (grouped radio buttons):
I hope someone can pass this over to Microsoft to solve this issue.
Attached you find the speedtest access db, and an excel with timings for the 4 test-cases.
We also see issues in 2407 Monthly release, but cannot pinpoint the issue at the moment. Once we have pinpointed this one I will inform you.
Best,
Ron
