making access database smaller

[Jai]

hi,

I was wondering how can I make my access database smaller. i have look at
changing the field size but that does not help.

Any comments is appreciated. The file size now approaching 70 Mb with out
any data mostly in there is a graphic file should I be looking at deleting
the graphic or what??

Thanks

Yes, deleting the graphic will make a big difference.

Don't forget to compact the database (Database Utilities on the Tools menu.)
