Believe me, I tried with the datagrid in the first place, and it was 
much slower than what I built.
Besides, as I already explained, the delay occurs only when moving from 
one card to another for the
first time. After going back and forth between the 2 cards a couple of 
times, the switch between
cards is instantaneous. But when a new query is sent from one of the 
cards and the fields are
populated with new content, then the delay happens again.
That's why I suppose that the card controls and their contents are 
stored somewhere by the engine
before changing cards.
