Thank you very much for your help! Since my typical record is less than 100 bytes I guess that I can use Page Size = 512 bytes without degradation of database performance.This would conserve memory. How vital is default number of pages for database performance? Can I drastically drop the number of pages to number of records accessed by user per his typical database session? Regards, Samuel
