Hi Dan,

This may not be of much help, since you've already visited Tony's site. My
next step would be the quickbooks side. Is there a newsgroup for QB? or
maybe tech support at Intuit? or user support group?

One thing I can tell you is Quickbooks is ridiculously slow to begin with. I
have 3 or so users using QB on fast computers. I could never understand why
everything has to be slow in QB.
