I have a 1gig access database, is there some sort of formula that gives a time frame for compacting an acccess db. I understand that it relays a lot on hardware, but assuming all things are equal is there some sort of way to know if 1gig will take 1hour or 20 minutes to compact? thank you

How long has it taken in the past?
You can watch it create the new database and watch its file size increase during the compact process.
if you think it’s hung, you can kill it and try it again.
