Pay Bills function extremely slow

Hi

I'm having a problem with the Pay Bills function on my QuickBooks. It
has become so slow it is almost unusable. My pc and all the other
fuctions on Quickbooks are functionally perfectly so it seems to only
be a problem with Pay Bills. Even if I only pay one item it takes up
to 10 minutes to post the transaction. If I check the task manager
during this time it says that the Quickbooks programme isn't
responding, but if I leave it long enough it completes the transaction
and returns to normal. Anybody got any ideas on what I can do to fix
this?

You don't say which version you're using. I had issues with things
like this in older Mac versions. Anyway, have you tried a Verify &
Rebuild of your data?

Sorry, I'm using Quickbooks Pro 2006. I did verify the data and there
were no problems. I haven't tried rebuild. Is it safe and easy? I
haven't done it before. I'll backup before I try it anyway. Thanks.

If you are multi user and someone else has the bank account open or someone else
is in payables I've seen some pretty impressive slow downs.

I tried the rebuild and it has made no difference. I don't use multi
user, I'm the only one using the software and the PC. I don't know
where to go from here, it would take a day to process 30 payments.
