I have found that too.

I have also found that when importing all objects into a new clean mdb that the size can (sometimes) be reduced dramatically.

I wonder if you put both of yours into new mdbs and THEN used wise to create mde's, would they reduce down much at all?

  Yes, in both cases, makes no difference..

  It wasn't compacted / repaired before changing to an MDE?

  Ok,
   I have a front end AXP .mde that weighs in at about 27 megs. When I use
  Wise to compile a new install with a few other objects, it compresses the
  entire install down to about 8 megs.

  Now....

   If I take ANY other database, even one created from the objects from this
  FE, the .mde does not compress down.


  Does anyone have any idea why THIS one FE compresses down, and other will
  not...??
