... to use AI lately (specifically Bing Chat) and found anything but "quick and precise answers" (I even argued with the AI). Currently AIs (or at least Bing Chat) is only a way to present the information so that it resemble natural language. Basically, is only a change of interface. ...

Jeff,
As suggested by fraxzi the AIS (the ADS remote server) could be helpful in this case.
I would consider having one table, in the data dictionary, per each remote computer.

... your help and valuable tips. We have narrowed the problem and we are very close to solve it. Remember, all except browsing features work fine with AIS over internet, with very few changes in code. This is very important and very reliable solution, with much more advantages than using Terminal Server. ...

Thanks so much. I assume you are referring to client server implementation of ADS Please, can you look at AIS/ADS and xBrowse spped?. Please try the same browse with WBrowse (the fastest) and XBrowse and see if XBrowse is a lot slower than WBrowse of the same dbf. If the difference ...

... a remote table, if so then maybe you should read about ADS replication. Again, so far everything I see from your code does not show a problem with AIS. It only shows a problem with what you are trying to do with it. I'm sorry I can't help you. Best regards, Reinaldo.

Please, can you look at AIS/ADS and xBrowse spped?.

Timm,

Do you use xbrowses with AIS over Internet or just in LANS?.

It is the same AIS (server side), same server (linux, windows, novell? -doesn't matter), same internet connection, same tables, same records. The only thing that's ...

... But since ADO is tailored to work with result sets, I would think it does relatively faster xbrowsing over slow connections. I can't see how AIS is much slower or faster. The difference between AIS and the remote server is that with AIS communication is encrypted-decrypted at both ends. What ...

Lucas,

I'd like to test accessing your .dbf tables in Spain from here. Please send me the connection string (ip, port, path and name of the dd), user and passw to access the DD over AIS. Thank you.


Reinaldo.

... goes to an ISP located in USA (sitasoft.net), while I am accessing it from Spain. It is inmediate. Very impresive. But accessing xBrowse with AIS in a server located in Spain but with latency over 40 ms is very very slow.
