I am running access 2003 frontend with tables linked to sqlexpress 2005 backend. I upsized the data from access and all was great ran very well for a while and I was twiking it and for some reason it is really slow. It use to take 5 seconds to refreash the linked tables but it takes almost 3 mins. I am in a pickel if anyone has had this problem please let me know?
 
What do you mean by "refresh" the linked tables? When you open the tables directly? When you open a bound form?

Do your forms bind directly to tables, or to queries?
 
Bind to the tables in access. When you refreash the tables by highlighting a table and right clicking go to link tables then select all and refresh them. They use to refreash in about 5 seconds but now its like two mins I have tried everything and I think its somthing I have done but I am stuck. Kinda looking foolish after three days of not figuring it out.
 
It also gives an 18452 SQL error when trying to log in for any computer but the server and it has not done that untill the slowness started.
 
This has got to be an access issue I tried upsizing another database and it is very slow doing that to when before it was quit fast.
 
I have got to be the biggest idiot on this planet. Please check this if you have linked table issues running really really slow before you check anything else:::

I went to ODBC Data Source Administrator clicked on the Tracing Tab and low in behold there was a reace running I stopped the trace and it is like lighting.
