You will need to give us more information to get an accurate answer but with only 6,000 rows then the results should be pretty fast.

There are lots of things that could be contributing factors;
are you using a stored procedure to return the data
are the indexes correct
is the search that is taking a lot of time returning a lot or records
are the statistics on the table up to date

add the table definition to your question and some details on how the data is being retrieved and we can get closer to a solution

thanks a lot for replying. I created a linked table in access. wrote a query to pull the necessary fields and then created a form.the table structure is similar to an employee table in adventure works db.What I think is its a problem in access not in sql server.
