We haven't had poor performance such as this reported before in the Financial Reporter. Certainly your machine is fast enough.

Copy the financial report spec file to your local hard drive, then open up this copy in the Financial Reporter. Do you still see the same slow performance in editing the spec?

What was the origin of the spec (converted from a GL DOS spec, created from scratch, modified sample spec)? How large is the report (ie how many columns, sheets, etc)? Is this the only spec that you see the slow performance?
