I am trying to create a knowledgebase for our department. I have tried to do it by storing Rich Text in a database. My problem is that the program is EXTREMELY slow when it gets to a record that contains a lot of formatting. Has anyone had success in using Rich Text in a database record? How could I speed this up?

Right now I have a ADODC control on the form. I have a DB Grid connected to the ADODC control as well as a Rich text box connected to the same ADODC. When the user selects the record they want on the DB Grid the Rich Text box displays the formatted Rich Text.

The problem comes when the Rich Text is lengthly and contains pictures and alot of different fonts.

Thanks
Brandon
