I have a database created in 03, used in a multi-user environment. Some users
have upgraded to 07 and have no problems. Users still using 03 are unable to
open the form used for the database. The tables are there...but the form
freezes when trying to open.

Split the database, so each user has their own separate copy of the front
end. If that's a new concept, see:

Now, using A2003, ensure Name AutoCorrect is off, compact, decompile,
compact again, and then ensure the code compiles. Details in:
Recovery sequence - Standard steps to recover a database

Once you have this working on one A2003 machine, you can copy that instance
of the front end to the other A2003 machines too.
