Database Specifications - How much is Access Max Size?

[Ben]

Hi All,

Do you know how much Database (.mdb) file size is?

My Access 97 help shows that Database (.mdb) file size is 1 Gigabytes

What about Access 2000 and Access 2003?

Do you where I can get Access Database Specifications?

Thank you,

Ben

2 GByte - but they use Unicode 2-byte characters instead of ASCII
1-byte characters, and have more overhead, so a 100 MByte database in
Access97 may well occupy nearly 200 MByte in A2000 (a bit less in
2003).

Do you where I can get Access Database Specifications?

In the online help under "Specifications". They might be buried deeply
on Microsoft's website but I'm not sure where!
