record deletion - mdb size
Running a program that archives files and removes records from the .mdb file, however after completion the .mdb file does not decrease in size but the records do not display if .mdb file opened in access?? Opened the .mdb file in access and deleted 10,000 records from 30,000 records, however the .mdb file is still the same size?? Are there some settings that must be set to permanently delete the records. Do not know anything about databases. Can anyone help. thanks jmk ------------------------------------------------ ~~ Message posted from http://www.ExcelTip.com/ ~~View and post usenet messages directly from http://www.ExcelForum.com/
