hello..

i am using dreamweaver mx to create a web based database driven using ms access.
i have created a search form to search for the required data entered by the user which they wish to search. currently access has 12468 records. so when in my web site i insert example 12164 for the tag num, the search takes a very long time and in the end the page just hang. if i wana search customer details using their customer name only there is no problem but if search by tag num which is number the problem appears. please help. i am stuck...

Sounds like you need a database which is designed to handle more records

Helo..

well i dont think so i can use a different database..because the whole department here use that database. what am i developing here is that the user uses the system which fully runs on Ms Access. i am developing a website database driven site for the staff to search their records more efficiently from anywhere rather than having the exact access system on their pc because it stands alone. so i am helping them to make it easier from them to view the previous records. so there is no way of changing the database here. so how do i solve it now?

I don't think you need a new database. I used MS Access to serve up to 100,000 pages a day and somehow I don't think you will reach this volume on a single department application.

I do think however you will need some more professional guidance, seeing the questions you asked before. Perhaps your company could arrange for some training and some consultancy to help you develop this application?

You might want to check that there is an index for this field. Also make sure the query returns only the minimum necessary for your task. If your query retrieve too many fields (columns) then the entire process will slow down.

Other than these suggestions then this would require a more detailed view of the database, etc and I suggest you find a consultant that is closer to you.
