    I have MS Access 2003 installed on a Dell e6420 Windows 7 32bit.
    When I open my mdb file with linked tables, MS Access shows not responding for about ten minutes then shows my forms, if I click on the anything on the form, it takes about a minute.
    There is nothing wrong with the mdb file as I have tested it on another machine. Also running MS Access in Admin mode does not help.

    If I try to open an mdb file without linked tables, it works fine.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The fact that it works on another machine make me think you need to do a repair on your office install, OR you may want to reinstall Office.
