---Update---
I eliminated the reference to the old Vantage server in the hosts
file. Still no change in performance.
However, the mention of the server name prompted me to poke around in
the registry a bit more. Before, I had been serching for and clearing
out/deleting registry entries for the mapped drive paths. When I
searched for the server name, I found a whole buch of OCX registry
entries that referenced the UNC pathname. After making the necessary
changes (two workstations have been done so far - 32 more to go...) it
seems that the speed issue has been resolved.
If I do have more issues, I'll let you know.
Thanks once again for your help,
John Mahala
