Have you run a repair and compact on them? That may bring the size down =
to reality. =20

agree with what you describe below. However, it looks like there are a =
lot=20
of tables, linked tables, and queries within the Access database. There =
don't appear to be any forms, and there are just a handful of reports. =
So,=20
at over 1GB in size, I guess they are storing data in Access, too.
