    Query performs, Report not

    Thanks - but that's not it. All my other reports perform as expected, it's only that one. If I add it for a form, the form is also slow. Strange.

    Query performs, Report not

    I'm using Access 2010 to connect to a SQL database. I created a query that reads data from 5 subqueries (all in Access). The query performs great and return the 30 odd rows in 1 second. But when I create a brand new report, and add my query as the RecordSource (no filters or groupings), the...
