change database from a split to not split
I split my database but know we need to put it back to what it originaly was.
How do you do it? I deleted all the split tables and then imported the tables back but know it accesses the tables very slow. What did I do wrong? |

change database from a split to not split
Why did you think you needed to put it back to a single file, rather than
leave it split? Is everyone now accessing the same single file stored on a network? If so, then that is probably the cause of your performance hit. -- Lynn Trapp MS Access MVP www.ltcomputerdesigns.com Access Security: www.ltcomputerdesigns.com/Security.htm "Joel" wrote in message ...

change database from a split to not split
Thanks for your thoughts
Before I split the data base we had very good performance accross the network from one large database. After I did the split it take a long time to access any information. Plus it gets confusing when doing updates to each workstation for the main forms. Is there a way to unsplit the database?

change database from a split to not split
Joel,
It sounds like you already know how to unsplit the database and that your performance problems got worse when you did so. Let me suggest that you take a look at Tony Toews' website to see if you can see something there that might be causing your slow performance. http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/performancefaq.htm One of the things that I would point out is that Tony, and all MVP's, will ALWAYS recommend that you work from a split database, despite the problems in updating the frontend to individual computers. If your performance problem is connected with the splitting of the database, it is likely due to the lack of a persistent connection, which Tony covers on his website. -- Lynn Trapp MS Access MVP www.ltcomputerdesigns.com Access Security: www.ltcomputerdesigns.com/Security.htm "Joel" wrote in message ...

Firstly I am sorry if I have mis-posted this.I want to arrange that a database makes a call over ISDN; collects the data returned, stores it and moves on to the next record.I appreciate that this is not strictly speaking the function of a databas | Larry Linson | New Users | 0 | July 5th, 2004 12:55 AM |
