Our company has recently upgraded from Office 2000 to 2003, as well as upgrading from Windows 2000 to XP. Prior to the upgrade, we could take approximately 200 records from Access and import them into Outlook in about 60 seconds. Since the upgrade this same action takes over 2 hours.

Importing is being done by using the 'file-import' command on the Outlook menu. The information is in a table that is formatted and has the correct field names for Outlook to use.

We have discovered one interesting thing about this situation: If the user is given Admin rights on the machine, everthing works fine. (Giving these rights to everyone is against policy and cannot be done.)

Has anyone run into this problem? If so, what did you do to cure it?

Thank you.
Michael J.
