Malte,

zryip is correct in that the Data Grid will be initialized later on if
preopenControl is never received. If you want to see exactly what is going
on check out the private command _Initialize in the script of btn "Data
Grid" of stack "revdatagridlibrary".

Given that persistent data is set to false and you don't have any data in
the grids then I think the most time intensive operation would be when the
table columns are created in the call to _table.CreateColumns.

You could experiment with commenting out some of the code in _Initialize to
determine where the bottle neck is. If you can locate it then perhaps we can
determine how to address the speed issue.
