Why Split?

Why should I split my database, and where have my forms and macros and
queries gone?????? (have already split just out of curiosity)

Yes. Towards the end of development is normal.

Once the structure is stable, and most pieces are in place, but before your
major testing.

Ok thanks. But I should do this when I'm completely finished shouldn't I?

I prefer to split early or at the beginning of development because it makes
backups easier, allows me to email smaller files, allows creating separate
table sets with test data, and is generally more flexible. Typically, I
design my table structure first and rarely change it very much during
development, so splitting early is rarely, if ever, a problem.
