Access 97 caused CPU reaches 100%

  • Hi All,

    I have an Access 97 database running locally from sqlserver2k.  Everytime, Access opens, my sqlserver server's CPU reaches 100% and caused the performance decreased significantly.  If I closed the Access db, the server's performance came back normal.  How can I overcome that? Thanks

  • Access is famous for causing locking problems with SQL Server.

    Try creating a views for each of your SQL Server tables as

    SELECT [field1]....[fieldn]

    FROM dbo.YourTable WITH NOLOCK

    Then try connecting these to your MS Access app. You can rename the local attached name within MS Access so it appears that your table names are the same.
