Compiling (1 Viewer)

[jd_boss_hogg]

I have a 2000 format dbase, split FE BE, which i want to compile. I have saved it as 2003 format (using 2003 access). Compacted it, reloaded it, saved as MDE.... access creates a db1.mdb in the folder and then does nothing.... i've let it for 20 mins and it looks like it has just stopped, but no warnings or anything. Dbase is 28mb - should i just keep waiting - could it still be doint soemthing ?
