I would move the DBC in question (and tables that belongs to it) into a separate folder to see if that resolves the problem.

The database does not contain most of the application's tables -- it only contains three slightly used tables, so there is not much contention on this database. I am not sure if having multiple databases is an issue or not. The ODBC only looks at one database.
