[AccessD] Database size

Barb, if you can change the database format to Access 2000.  Then try
decompile/compile.  Then compact.

There was an issue in 2002 which, I think, prevented decompiling if the
database was in 2002 format, but worked fine in 2000 format.

Subject: [AccessD] Database size

I just deleted many objects (probably 75 forms, queries, reports) from an
Access 2002 database (using Access 2003).  I then compiled and compacted.
However, the database actually increased in size by 4MG!!! (from 26 to
30MG).

What happened? :-(

Thanks,
Barb Ryan
