Hi,
I have an Access application installed on a network server that is
accessed by several users. It isn't split into a front-end/back-end (I
know it should be but when I've tried, the response time for all users
is unacceptable). It has been working fine for many months, for all
users. Recently, for one user, the response time has been unacceptable
with a form taking 3-4 minutes to load that use to only take a few
seconds.
I've verified it is not a network problem by copying large files from
the network server to the local hard drive from the problem PC and a
good PC. Files copy in the same time. I also brought a copy of the
database from the server to the local drive of the problem PC and ran
it directly from the local PC. Still had the unacceptable response
time - absolutely not time savings gained.
I'd appreciate any help or ideas from anyone on how to troubleshoot
this, or what the problem may be.
Additional information that may be helpful follows.
Thanks,
LuAnne

From the Access version number I can see you're not on the latest. Run
Office Update to correct that.
Also find the latest version of Jet 4.0 on microsoft.com, and apply
that.
Run SpyBot ( http://www.spybot.info/) to check for spyware.

When you split your database, did you give each user their own front end or
were they all using the same front end? If you didn't provide each user
their own FE you would experience the same problems as an unsplit db.

Thanks for those who responded to this. I just wanted to post a
follow-up in case anyone else has this problem.
It turned out this PC had less memory than the other PCs. We ordered
and installed additional memory - it is working fine now!
