MS-Access 2007 - Compact & Repair how?
Is that option that was in 2003 still available ? I have some corruption on a DB. A big table I cannot get to export. I have used the compact and repair in the past with MS-Office 2003 with success. I would like to do a similiar process with MS-Office 2007 Access. Russ at Scaninc.org -- Russ at scaninc.org |

Make sure you compact/repair a copy of your database, not the original.
In case something goes bad, you can try again on another copy of the original and keep the original intact for recovery. "TedMi" wrote in message ...

I found out that the compact function in Access 2007 does not really
help. Try "Save in another format" via the Office Button and select Access 2007 as format. It seems this will compact your application to it's absolute minimum. Attention, do not to to overwrite the original file, because then you will lose everthing!!! |
