Disable Home Page in Dynamics GP 10

I take no credit for this post, it actually came out of the Dynamics GP Newsgroup. I've just cleaned it up a bit. Thanks to Graham Anderson for the info.

The Home Page in Dynamics GP 10 provides some great information at a glance but it can be a resource hog in some environments. So how do you disable it?

1) Via the Dynamics GP interface:
- Click Customize this page.
- Uncheck everything.

This doesn't technically turn it off but since the page isn't pulling any data it shouldn't be a resource hog.

2) Turn it off for one user via SQL:
- In Query Analyzer or Management Studio execute

UPDATE DYNAMICS..SY08000 set DISPHP = 0 where USERID = 'XXX'

change XXX to the appropriate user id.

3) Turn it off for all users via SQL:
- In Query Analyzer or Management Studio execute

UPDATE DYNAMICS..SY08000 set DISPHP = 0
