Hi,
After using ethereal and making changes for a while, I came to the conclusion that there is apprently a problem with
AccessDatabases in 2000 format used under Access 2003. After converting my database into the native 2003 format (not
compatiblewith Access 2000, though) I don't have any more problems, and the application is much more responsive, by the
way.
Filters in bound forms work fine, and don't suffer any performance penalty... And the recordset remains updatable,
whichis great for a RAD tool like Access.
I hope this helps.

Objet : [ODBC] Filter equivalent for Access bound form
Access 2003
pg 7.4.3
What is the recommended approach to get the equivalent of a filter for an Access bound form?
The filter property of a bound form seems to be the equivalent of an Access client-side query of SELECT * FROM
form.recordsourceWHERE form.filter. That would have a performance penalty.
I change the SQL of pass-through queries dynamically at runtime to use as record sources for reports. That wouldn't
workfor forms, as not updatable.
Is the best approach to use an updatable view as the record source, then change the view definition at runtime as with
apassthrough query?
Would need a unique view name for multi-user reasons, perhaps including part of a timestamp string or sequence. The
originalview's insert, update and delete rules should still have valid syntax except for the new view name, as only the
WHEREclause and view name are changed. The rules could be updated with VBA code at the same time as the view change.
Thanks,
David P. Lurie
