>Hi Gareth,

>You might be aware of that VFP DBF files can have up to 2 GB. About the compression issue, if you are using NTFS file system in Windows 2000 you can choose the folders you want to compress and the O.S. will handle this transparently for you.

This will save disk space, but it won't solve the 2GB VFP limit.
