Hi all,

We are running an access 97 db (split) over an NT network.

The data mdb and system.mdw are held on a network drive and the application is installed on each client.

This has worked fine for years, but recently I have noticed the mdw file bloating - it is now 4mb.

It is easy enough to compact it back to its 100k normal size, but its a bit alarming. Anyone got any ideas why this might happen?

Thanks!
