Has anyone experienced this? At first I thought it was the network I was on, but I copied my development mdb to the local hard drive, and it still does the same thing, and it is only doing it in access: whenever you type a keystroke, or select a group of controls using the mouse, there is a pronounced lag time to when it actually happens. Any idea on what causes this and fixes are appreciated, it's driving me nuts! This is an Access 2003 mdb. It is also taking forever to save the mdb. I've reconstructed it, repaired it, etc, it seems to help for a little bit, and then back to the long lag times.....
