I am using Access 2000.I have made a database with only one table(That is the
requirement currently) with 5 Fields(Columns) like Name, Address, Phone,
ContactPerson and ContactPerNo.Now I have started the entry and my database
is now 1.61 MB in 12 days and going on increasing.I am very worried about the
backup.Which storage medium should I use to backup?

You can back it up wherever you want. A tape, a CD, a floppy. Whatever you
want.

You can use whatever you like. I suggest you try doing a repair and
compact and I'd guess it will shrink quite a bit. It will likely be small
enough to fit on a floppy for a long time to come.
