Compact individual forms

Guest · Oct 25, 2005

I have an .mde file running with different forms for users to access various
information.

Opening and closing forms makes the .mde grow in size.

Is there a way to compact individual forms when I close them?

Other hints about adressing this issue is appreciated.

Diane,

No. Compacting is all or nothing.

A number of people use the compact on close option but I've
never felt comfortable with that.

My own preference is to offer users a menu option or button
to compact. See-
