microsoft.public.access.gettingstarted

Thanks very much, I appreciate the help, but it didn't help.

My new pc came with a trial verson of Office 2007 word and excel.
I uninstall it and then had to reinstall Office 2003. But this did not fix
the problem.

It still takes a very long time to open my databases. It says after a long
wait, that it could not locate my file while it is clearly open in the
background.

Any other ideas?
