//quote// WARNING: Do not use this program with Access 97 replica databases. //unquote// I already passed Chuck the LINK to my website's Access Maintainer version 1.2.0 ---- THAT version is kosher for our database files.. Chuck - FYI - once you use the accesss maintainer -- you should end up with about 5 Megs in size .... you can use it as often as you wish. 73 Joe WA6AXE Tony Cash wrote: > Go to the link below and download "Access Maintainer". > http://gracemere.com/AccessMaintainer/downloadnow.asp > It is an Access file compressor and will cut your database > file size by more than 50%.
