I have a client who is running an old database application in MS Access 95. (It apparently cannot be upgraded to a newer version of Access for technical reasons).
We recently just upgraded their entire office to new Athlon machines running XP, and this legacy database application has become VERY slow - like 10 seconds to 2 minutes of hourglass time when they open a form or generate a report.
Can anyone point me in a direction to potentially help them with this problem? I am in the middle of building them a new database using SQL servers, but they need to run their legacy app in parallel for a few months and it's just totally unworkable on their new machines.
Many thanks!
