I have Office 2000 installed on my computer running under Windows NT. I use Access 2000 to open a read-only Access 97 application that has links to an Access97 backend database. The tables in this backend are being updated by a different Access97 application operating on the network. I can't see any of the updates to the tables unless I close my application and then reopen it.

I have tried:
Records Refresh
Changing the refresh interval
Closing and reopening the tables without exiting the .mdb

Nothing seems to work.

Another user has Office 2000 running under Windows 2000 and is opening the same read-only database on the network. She sees all the updates immediately.

Is there something wrong with the installation under Windows NT? Or is there some setting that is wrong?

Any hints would be appreciated.
