Re: Summary search -- speed

numero = 12126
interpreted = N
texte = The summary search command appears very useful for pulling out unique fields, such as the categories in the Tea Room example that ships with 2.0. I'm wondering what type of speed this summary search command has over large databases. If the inventory was in the 100K records range, would there be a significant speed hit for a unique entry summary search? Would I be better off with a separate data table that kept a unique list of categories, etc? I don't yet have the large inventory database to play with, but I need to plan ahead for it.ThanksSandy
