I would say yes. Compacting shouldn't hurt anything and should help make
things run smoother.
Although, typically, compacting is a database function (and generally a VERY
desirable one), so I AM a little suprised that she gets it from her Internet
connection. My guess is that this is a function of her ISP.
Compacting a database is like squeezing all the the air out of the baggie
before you zip it shut. It's a good thing as it removes wasted space.

I got this question from my friend (you have helped me help her in the
past).
"When I click on to the Internet I get a message that says I have wasted
space in my folders and ask if I want to compact now. I can click yes or no.
I click no because I don't know just what the message means.When I click no
then the computer goes on and dials alltel (my connection). Any ideas or
suggestions regarding the above will be appreciated. "
I have no idea what her problem is. Is there a simple answer to this?
Thanks. Rebecca
