Report Hangs When Access Looses the Focus

I have a Access 2003 application with a SQL Server database that performs
intensive data processing for reports. Typically the application gets input
from the user and then launches the data processing and then opens the
report. I'm finding that if the user switches to another Windows task then
the Access process "gets lost". The process doesn't seem to finish properly
or the report opens with the dialog still visible. It's usually necessary to
kill the Access task and run it again.

This is common with several of my systems if the data processing is
extensive, it requires launching the report and then not toucing the machine
until it's done. Is this common? What's the solution?
 
Hi,
never saw this. perhaps you have some code running? make sure that it does
not produce an error, and you do not switch off screen repaint
 
I don't think any of these things are happening because if I don't switch to
another Windows application, there's no problem.

This is consistent across my machine, my subcontractor', and my client's
