Large database

My 2000 mdb file went from 5MB to 30MB overnight (for no apparent reason). Compact and Repair brings it down to around 28MB, but that still seems larger than it should be. Any advice

1)you could import all objects in a new database and see
if it is still 28 mb

2)try the external jet compact utility from microsoft
3) you could try the undocumented /decompile switch (more
info on the internet)
