Slow Moving, Not Responding

Hi kerril and welcome to the RH community.

The .cpd file is a database file that is automatically built if it is not there when you open a project. RH8 even has an option to rebuild it even if it is there.

It finally created my layout so the project has survived another day. I will take your advice though and make a copy and pull out some of the flashy features to see what happens.

Thanks,
Mike

And it's been slow ever since? In a former life I had a project that was only 600 topics but had thousands of inks and DHTML hotspots. When I opened it I could have gone to Guatemala to pick my coffee beans before returning to roast, grind and brew them. You don't say how many links, images, and dhtml has been added but you could try taking a copy of the project thrashing some of the content and see if that is quicker. If it is, maybe it is time to consider merged help.

We added a lot a few months ago. It does have links, images, and dhtml.

Have you added a lot of content, links, images or DHTML? How big is the project?

Is your source on a local drive (good) or a netword drive (bad). If on a local drive, close the project and locate it's .cpd file. Rename it and reopen the project. Does that make a difference?
