Thanks for the replies,

Certain things seem to have improved (ie. the speed) in the last A/R upgrade. However, there's still some things that still take quite a while; customer # changer, various reports (mainly month end related), and exports.

I am using the term 'history' in a generic sense.

We have quite a large volume of data in A/R, and so we thought this may be causing some of the speed issues. We like the idea of keeping a separate copy of our company A/R data in a different place for the archival access, and purging the history so that our working live company data can be a smaller and more workable size. We'll make backups and give this a try (can't hurt to try??).

Thanks for your help and suggestions!
