I have an application that generates 1000's of 150K compressed files. I've been toying with the idea of shoving them all onto a DB because of the way Windows groans when you have to enumerate folders with many small files. The scanner I use takes care of that by making a directory for each batch of documents scanned. I've seen that same thing on Windows systems for other projects. I ended up having to create a manager that would store files into numbered sub directories to avoid it. The downside of course is I'd have to vacuum the tables from time to time. That's why we get paid the 'big bucks' ;) - To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -
