As I said, I never could put any real rhyme or reason to it. Seems to be one of those myths that have just been floating around. As Gary suggested, it may have come about from developers who don't bother to do a split design or do it and *still* leave the FE on the server to be shared rather then deploying it out to the clients. I've never had any problems with FE's of any size that I could trace just to the factor of size.

Some folks must have run into some issues for this idea to be floating around.

Never been able to put a rhyme or reason to that.

This would be the "Front End" part of an Access Application, with the data stored in the "Back End". If necessary, we could split the Front End into more than one Accdb file.
