Jane,
 
Also, it can depend on the size of your backend (sounds kind of personal, doesn't it?).  The larger the mdb file, the slower it will compact.  Depending on your environment, it might not compact after reaching a certain size without jumping through a lot of hoops.  I had one project on a Novell network that started getting weird around 30MB and simply refused to compact at all at 80MB.

The main disadvantage is that you cannot enforce referential integrity between multiple backends.
 
I'm forced to do things with multiple backends for one of my clients.  You just need to manage your interfaces so that you maintain integrity as you would with relationships.

Subject: [AccessDevelopers] Multiple BE vs one BE

Are there any advantages/disadvantages in keeping all the data tables
in one back end file as opposed to splitting the biggest data tables
into their own BE?
Or does it make no difference?
