    How many tables,queries,forms, and reports are to many for one Database?

    I worry about the weridest things but I am wanting to know when is to much to much for my access database.
    For one database:
    Tables=
    Forms=


    Querries=
    Records in a table=
    Records in a database=

    or are all these things considered objects and in that case how many objects are to many?

    Thanks for the help as always,


    Yes, i have read alot of articles trying to figure this out and all I have done is confuse myself more.

    you are limited to 2 Gig in a db.
    i have hundreds of queries.
    most db do not need hundreds of Tables, but I did get 2 million records in 1 table, but hit my 2 gig limit.

    it should handle any avg company data.
    (but not if you are Amazon)

    Attached are some statistics generated for one of my Access databases - FE approx 140MB and 3 linked BE files with most linked tables in SQL Server

    Its nowhere near the limit of what can be done in Access and its still fast/responsive to use

    However there are some built in limits for different Access objects e.g. maximum number of controls in a form is approx 750
    See http://www.databasezone.com/techdocs/acclimit.html
