InfoPath Dev

I read everywhere that people are enjoying developing behind infopath forms with managed code. I don't understand how it works because as soon as I generate a project by adding my first event, forms based in the template immediately take 1 - 5 minutes to open. It's simple without managed code, forms open immediately. Using VBScript (which I can't stand) forms open immediately. Using C# or VB forms take forever to open. I'm not loading data from a data source. I don't have a lot of controls. I'm so confused as to how I've found an issue that no one on the internet has ever posted about. :-)

I would be so grateful if someone might tell me what I'm doing wrong. I want to use C# behind infopath forms. But it isn't feasible if forms take minutes to open. It almost seems like the form is trying to access a network location on open when code is part of the template. This shouldn't be the case because the only data sources are found in the built-in myFields groups which I assume are part of the form template.

Please Help Infopath gurus

whenever u deploy a form, specially a form with code behind, first time it is loaded it takes some time. are you talking about that or your form takes more time in general

Thanks a lot for your reply, Qazi.

When you say "deploy" do you mean create a new form from a template... by double-clicking on the template file, or clicking the "Create" button in a sharepoint form library? If so, then deploying takes a long time. And everytime the form is opened after it is initially created, it takes a long time. It's not just a matter of seconds, it takes minutes. Users think that their infopath app is crashing.

Building the project only takes a matter of seconds. If that's what you mean by deploy.

 My code project doesn't even contain any statements. The event methods are just empty shells. I need to troubleshoot this form creation/opening issue before I'll even bother with actual.

 Thanks again for your post.

by deploy i meant publishing to the site, when you publish a form to a site and then the first form takes lot of time after which the performance is ok. But your seems to be a different case.

I've attempted what you suggested... 1) Published InfoPath form with C# code behind to a SharePoint Form Library, 2) Opened an instance of the form. (It took over a minute) 3) I closed the form and opened a new form. (Again, it took over a minute.)

 <sigh> I really hate working around VBScript limitations. I would love to be able to code C#. Any other suggestions? I'm using InfoPath 2007, SharePoint 2007, Visual Studio 2005... Any other information that might be useful?

Thanks again for the posts.
