Full Database and Table Capacity Reached

[LizeAccess]

Hi all,

my MS Access 2007 database has reached full capacity of 2G.
In order to prepare myself to obtain sql to transfer the database, I need to ensure my colleagues can keep working, so I decided to split the back-end (front and back are already split) into 2; so the capacity of all the tables can be spread.


Problem I am having is that 1 of the tables actually is 1.9G on its own. So the 1 table is in 1 database and the other 20 tables are in another one (those 20 form a combined capacity is 46MB).

For some reason, the file that contains 1.9G only has 2800 records. I have tested deleting about 900 of those and it doesn't affect the 1.9G capacity at all. It seems there is a record or setting that it taking up a huge amount of space.

How do I find which record or setting it is? Is there any way of finding out what is making this table so heavy and excluding 1 signle answer? 6 months ago, the entire database wasn't even 100MB.

Please advise urgently if someone can help me fix my issue while I look into transferring the database to slq for higher capacity.

Cheers
