Periodically you should perform the following. When finished using the

point close the file. [you must do so as the database engine is indeed
shutdown at this point] This will reduce the size of the file on disk
and the memory used at run-time, and will increase performance on
startup and shutdown. Depending on how actively you edit that table
this period can be once a week or once every two weeks..can't say what
is right for your specific usage.
Thanks Drew!!
This worked a treat for me and I can see a marked improvement in my
close-down times of the main DB and also closing Queries,
A real Gem!! (Is there any way of automating this do you know??)
