Our .Net application has used the 32 bit ODBC link for years with no complaints. It is slow with large files but not impossibly so. However, we recently issued a new 64 bit version of our appllication, and after installing the 64 bit ODBC driver there is a serious lag on initial connection - 40 seconds or more

Once connected, it is as before. The client is using Sage 50 Vr 20 on Windows 7 Pcs.
I suspect buffering, but the ODBC Admin program doesn't offer any options. I've googled a lot but couldn't find any help (and Sage wouldn't help without a developer licence). Has anyone any ideas ?

Sage is 32 Bit, the 64 bit drivers are probably some sort of wrapper around the 32 bit drivers, they are new and it would not surprise me if they are slower and more buggy than 32, they are certainly never going to perform better than the 32 bit drivers.
Why do you have a 64 bit application?
I would only ever use 64 bit is there were serious amounts of maths to do needing vast amounts of memory.
32bit apps work better in 99.9% of circumstances.
Do you really need to use ODBC?
How about Sdata?
Or even an export of data to a text file read by the database would work better, I know it is clunky but if it works.
