Why if i create a database with pictureplus fields and use the copy/paste method, the *.adx file becomes massive?
the file size jumped from 130kb to over 500mb with just 10 small jpeg (approx 40 - 80kb each)pictures pasted.
I have changed the method of picture insertion to OLE linked using the IMPORT PICTURE option. How do i restore the file size.(the app is at a client and now has a physical size of 1.28gb, causing bachup problems!
Using the import picture option, will this prevent the file size increasing?
