flickering screen in runtime version Access 2003

Recently I put in the folders of every user a front-end database. All the the folders are placed on a sharedrive. Everything is OK except one issue: when the user enters the data in the form the imagine on the screen is flickering. The users has only runtime Access 2003 version. Can anyone tell how to settle this problems which seems to bothers the users?
This flickering doesn't happen to me maybe because I have a full version of Access 2003.
Thank you

Also,

<<All the the folders are placed on a sharedrive>>

This can also cause performance issue. Like flickering.

It is best to have the front end on the local hard drive so that it does not have to load objects across the network.

For tips on deploying your front end locally see: Splitting your Access database into application and data
This is also fixed in Office 2003 SP3.  Sounds like you may need to install the updates.
