Poul,

On your desktop, right click the "My Computer" icon and select the
"Properties" item.  You will get a pop-up dialog form with the title "System
Properties."  Click to the "Advanced" tab in the form, and then click the
"Settings" button inside the "Performance" area.  You will get another
pop-up dialog form with the title "Performance Options".  Under the "Visual
Effects" tab, you can choose to boost your computer's performance by
eliminating some or all of the visual effects in XP.  I think the "Fade or
slide menus into view" item is the one you mentioned in your question.

I hope you find this helpful.

Hi there, after an upgrade to XP I find that the 'file open' command of the
first SAS menu item to perform in a peculiar slow way. The window opens
gradually as if some 'sliding' effect is in action. All in all it takes 2
seconds for the menu to open. On other applications (MS ?) the same menu
item opens immediately?

It is very annoying as it is an item that I use a lot.

Has anyone seen this too?

Regards
