However, as a general rule, I always do create a persistent
connection, as on some networks..it don't make a difference, but
on others...it makes a HUGE difference.

Has anyone tested the difference between opening a recordset on a
local linked table and simply initializing a db variable pointing to
the back-end database? Both create the MDB, but it seems to me that
the latter is more efficient.
