[AccessD] 2007 Compact and Repair

Thanks. I noticed that that is also where "Back Up a Database" lives. Yay!

Anyone have an idea why "Back Up a Database consistently makes smaller
databases than Compact and Repair? My guess is that it creates a new db and
then imports everything into it, but that's just a guess. Identical behavior
in Access 2003, too.
