Now I try to let my colleague in my office to work on a same Database shared in a FOLDER via LAN.
 
This FOLDER is actually site in a External Hard disc attached to my Windows 10 PC. I work it very fluently without any problem, but it is very slow and will hang and wait for long time to show a list of choice in a popup field.
 
The database, though is not small, it contains I believe 6,000 and more items.
 
Can anyone share with me his or her experience as how to make the speed faster for my colleague to work on my LAN shared Database ?
 
His computer is also new one with 6GM Memory and windows 10 system.
 
Many thanks.

HI Sean,
 
I'm not a network guy, but AFAIK, a network share is not the same thing as a LAN
 
Perhaps this can help though:
 
p.s. The External FD is NTFS ? Try to move the IQBase to you machine (SSD if possible) and see if it helps)
 
If you succeed in improving performance, report it back and I'll document it. Good luck !
