I have an old Access database that is being upgraded to work with Access 2007. The client is complaining that it is slow now. I am looking for ways to optimize it.
There is one subform that is in a particular tab on the form. I have been wondering — does the subform still update/query even when it is not visible?
If this is configurable — how?
All controls refresh/update whether visible or not.
It’s generally considered good practice to not load recordsets until they are needed. If you have many subforms in a tab control, you can use the tab control’s OnChange event to load/unload your subforms, or, alternatively, to set the recordsources.
However, with only a couple of subforms, this is not likely to be a big help. But with a half dozen or so, it’s a different issue.
