D Douglas J. Steele Jun 23, 2004 #2 Access 97 and previous: 1 Gigabytes Access 2000 and newer: 2 Gigabytes Note that deleting records isn't enough: you also need to compact the database to recover the space.

J John Vinson Jun 23, 2004 #3 how much space is availible in a database, before I need to delete information? Click to expand... 2 GBytes (two billion bytes approximately). Enough for several encyclopedias. Deleting records won't recover the lost space though - you also need to use Tools... Database Utilities... Compact and Repair Database regularly.
