I have a stack which has one card, about 25 controls and about 800 lines of script, no graphics, and no images. Pretty much a bare bones stack. It is a utility stack I use for working on database materials.

In the interest of saving space in the file, I deleted the text from all fields, yet the stack file shows about 6 megabytes!

I created a new stack with the same number of controls and inserted 800 lines of text in one of the fields. The file is about 24 K.

Now the db stack originally contained massive amounts of county election data. But all of that is gone now, and yet the stack is still 6 megs.

I know that RR does not have a separate utility to compact stack as in the old HC days; that is supposedly done with each save (save from the menu bar.)

I have many stacks with more controls, longer scripts, a few graphics, and images. Yet they are a fraction of the size of this one DB stack. What could be eating up all this space?
