Think about segmenting the data by year or by type.

>I was wondering (and I am sure that some of you must know) why exactly MS puts a 2 gig limit on the size of VFP tables. We are quickly approaching this limit on one of our tables and it has forced us to move the app over to SQL Server. Hopefully there is a better reason for Microsoft limiting the VFP file size other than trying to get VFP apps to migrate to SQL.
