Ole Objects in forms

When Access stores a jpeg file, it stores it uncompressed.
The jpeg format is a compressed file format, but Access
stores it uncompressed. That is where the bloating is
coming from. I would suggest you store a hyperlink and
open the picture from the hyperlink. The file will be
stored on your computer in the normal file system and will
not unnecessarily bloat your database.

Hope this helps!
