Is there a size limit in Access that will cause file problems once you exceed?
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
This subject could go on for days. In a nutshell, Access has a theoretical 2 Gig limit although you will more than likely see problems well before this limit; many have complained about corruption issues around 100 megs, although I've read of cases where db's are well over a gig and run fine (never owned one personally, though). I have found that concurrency (number of simultaneous users) will pose more of a threat to your db than size. Are you asking for your own edification or are you working on a project? If it's the latter, give some details on the db that you'll be building.
