> Was wondering what file size limits Access2000 DB have? I believe that the maximum file size is 2 Gb. I've actually seen files nearly that large being used in CF applications (1.8 Gb or so). Interestingly enough, the file size by itself doesn't necessarily make that much of a performance difference, if you have a fast enough disk subsystem and enough memory (4+ Gb or so). The number of concurrent users seem to make more of a difference.
In one case, a file about that size was being used as a Client variable repository. The tables themselves only had a couple of hundred records, but since Access databases grow but don't shrink, the thing just kept getting larger!
