Access Application Data in Documents & Settings

I have a User that cannot use a specific database in Access. The PC has
Windows XP Pro SP2 & Office 2003 with all updates. Access opens the DB but
when the User tries to execute a search Access goes "unresponsive."

Other DBs will open and operations work successfully except for this one DB.

This is the only PC that is having this problem. I have logged in on another
PC with the same User account and there is no problem. I have logged in as
other Users on this one PC and Access functions correctly for the other Users.

With this User logged in, and XP booted in SAFE MODE, Access will function
properly.

It is only affecting this one specific user on this one specific PC booted
up in normal mode.

I have reinstalled Office suite 3 times and this solved nothing. It seems
like there is something corrupted within the User's profile or Application
Data that is causing the problem.

I know with NT and 2000 Pro you could rename the User's folder in Documents
& Settings and then log back in as that User to recreate Application Data &
such... However, with XP this does not seem to be a possible fix because
Windows will not let me rename or delete the User's folder in Documents &
Settings.

Any ideas for a possible fix??? Thanks...

Printer Driver Strikes Again...

I changed default printers and Access worked... so I changed the Printer
Driver and switched back to the appropriate printer... problem solved.
