Default Growing Access - 11-25-2004 , 05:41 AM






I have a database with only 2000 (Spanish) words and translations and
learning scores of 2 persons. The database is now 54 Mb big. I would expect
only several hundreds of kilobytes in a database with only text. I have also
a genealogical database woth 1,300 persons and about 20 pictures. This
database is 317 Mb. Even if I do not import the pictures, but make links, it
doesn't improve the bigness. The repair and compression function has no
effect.

What can I do to bring the database back to normal prportions.

What is the sum of the original sizes of these pictures?
