| I create a recordset of up to 10000 records (or more in the future). I have to look up info on each on in a table that has grown to 2.5 million records. While going through the look up process, I get a timeout. Any suggestions on how to handle this???drman |

| Change your timeout value. The default for most is 30 seconds. If you run the query in Query Analyzer, it will not timeout as the default is 0, which means never timeout. Timeouts are stored in different places, it just depends how you are connecting to SQL Server. How are you connecting to it?Tara |

| I changed the settings on the server after I posted my initial request. It worked, however, I have to be able to speed it up considerably. I think the problem is in the actual queries into the 2.5 million records.Thanks muchdrman |
