[PEDA] file compression

2003-03-17 Thread Mark Iams-McGuire
Hi,

It's been a while since I've used Protel.  I recall there is a utility to 
reduce the database file size but I don't remember.  How is this done?

TIA

Mark

Hello Mark,

Under the 'fat arrow' in the top left of the toolbar, select 'design
utilities'.
You can manually select to compress the database, or set it to compress
on closing.

regards,

Phil.

Click on the famous big down arrow to the left of the File menu 
item.  The dropdown menu will have 'Design Utilities' - therein lie the 
compact and repair tools.

Also don't forget to clean out the recycle bin in your project ddb before
compressing it!
