I realise that this should be a simple answer but as I have no knowledge of Access it's causing me difficulties!
Here's my problem....
I currently have an Access database with 1.7 million postcodes. What I am actually trying to do if do a lookup from Excel but thats on a different thread!
However, a kind forum user has suggested I send the files to him to see where the problem is. When I delete the data to make the file more manageable (its 103MB) the file size doesn't change.........
What am I doing wrong?
Can some please explain in simple step waht I need to do delete the data perminenetly so I can email it?
