All,
I set up a simple database using Access 97. It's a couple of tables, a few forms, and some queries. Upon completion, entry of about 60 records, and compacting, the file size was 312KB.
I attempt to add ONE record, with a total of maybe 500 BYTES of characters, and file size jumped to 500+KB.
The reason I bring this up, is that the user added about 5 records, maybe 1500 characters total, and the file size is up to 1708KB. This wouldn't have anything to do with Field Size limits that I put into the tables, would it.
I haven't had a chance to get into it yet, but I thought I'd put the feelers out. Any ideas?
