Update: Yup, size was not the problem at all. Problem was the code didn't compile. I fixed the errors and now I can make an ADE. Thanks! --Susan Susan, Since and adp/ade is designed to work with a SQL Server backend, that KB probably doesn't apply to you, as it is talking about an MDE that is also storing data. I suspect a different problem. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan Geller" <sgeller at cce.umn.edu <http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd> > To: <accessD at databaseadvisors.com <http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd> > Sent: Monday, January 23, 2006 8:31 AM Subject: [AccessD] Can't create ADE file b/c of file size -- need"lightweight" forms? I have an application that I create as an adp and release as an ade (same concept as mde) about 2-3 times per year. With this latest version, I can't create an ADE file. In searching the MS KB, I found this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289686/EN-US/ which suggests that the reason is b/c the file as grown too large. I'm sure that is the reason. One suggested workaround is to use "lightweight" forms and reports. What does that mean? Any other work arounds? -- Susan B.
