OLE Notes Path and Microsoft Dynamics GP Performance

From the archive. This post dates from the blog’s Dynamics GP and early Power Platform era. Products and screenshots may have changed since it was written, and some of its links (PartnerSource and CustomerSource pages, legacy Maximum Global Business downloads, and other retired sites among them) may have been archived or may no longer be available.
Microsoft Dynamics GP's performance may be affected if the OLE Notes path is not consistent among all workstations where Dynamics GP is installed. The performance behavior is consistent with that of slow network connectivity, which can lead to troubleshooting down the wrong path.

To verify each workstation's OLE path, open the DEX.INI file (located under the Microsoft Dynamics GP installation folder for versions prior to 10.0 or in the Data folder under the installation folder for Dynamics GP 10.0 and above) and check the OLEPath setting (Click on image to enlarge).
