[PEDA] file compression
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?

Re: [PEDA] file compression
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. -Original Message- From: Mark Iams-McGuire [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 17 March 2003 8:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PEDA] file compression Hi, It's been a while since I've used Protel.

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.

Re: [PEDA] file compression
Also don't forget to clean out the recycle bin in your project ddb before compressing it!
