A large universe takes a lot of time to be opened in Designer

[Former Member]

Hi All.

When opening a large universe (I can't tell at the moment how large...) it takes a lot of time to open it. a lot of time can be up to two hours (I guess even more).

Well, I have been told that there's a way to open universe in Designer without the Designer verifying objects/tables/whatever in the opened universe, and that can help me open it quickly.

Does anybody knows how to do it ?

Thanks you very much

Hi Ehud,

In tools,options there is a 'check integrity on opening the universe' You should check that this is out. You should alos check that the Show Row Count is in the Graphic tab of the option window is off as fetching the row counts can take some time

Hello,

can you tell us what is the size of this Universe in terms of:

number of tables, number of objects, size of the .unv file?

Also, is this behaviour specific to this universe or you have other universes having the same problem?

Last, are you 'opening it' as in File/Open or importing it as in 'File/Import...' ?

Thanks
