Hi all,

Does anyone know how to resolve a problem I'm having while compacting an Access 2000 database? After what seems like a long time, an error message pops up saying that Access can't find "Description". I'm not sure if this is a field or what. When I click OK, the database has not compacted at all. The database is just under 1GB. I have compacted this database in the past (in Access 97) and it has worked fine. This is the first time I have tried to compact the database in Access 2000. I just converted the database using Office Converter software. Any ideas? Thanks for your help! :rolleyes:
