How to interrogate through OLEDB for space to be freed by compaction?

There is a way to ask a data source how much space would be freed if
compaction were to be done. I saw the reference, but now cannot find it.

Anyone know where that web page was? Even Google has not helped.

Hello, I found a CLOB column in a DMS table that programmers were using to store tiny strings (less than a couple kilobytes). Since CLOB columns can only allocate entire kilobytes of space at best (when created with the COMPACT qualifier), I know that this was wasting a lot of space in the long tablespace. I added a VARCHAR(2048) column to that table so it could hold those small strings instead, which allowed me to null out the tiny...

I am developing in c++, OLEDB, and targeting the Jet backend. I have realized late in the project that the Jet backend is too slow, and I need to retarget. I do not want to rewrite my source code. I do not want to pay royalties. I want better performance. The application is single user, local access only, but needs high performance. Fancy features are not required in general ... Can anyone recommend a new backend? RDeW

I have stumbled upon an interesting issue with regard to compaction of an access frontend database which resides on a DFS target that utilizes FRS to mirror the sharepoint, and I was wondering if anyone knows a way to overcome it. For those who are unaware of DFS or FRS, DFS stands for Distributed File System, and basically involves "mounting" various sharepoints that reside on various computers underneath one special sharepoint.

Hi From within a VB app how do you cause a global memory compaction or free up as per the many memory freeing applications? Can you say via VB to windows to clean-up/ free up memory used by just one application? I have been looking for an example but thus far can't find one!

So Im working on this project that is written in C that has a certain space limit on the size of the program. So far I have 15% free. If i use the #peephole, I can get 16% free. I would like to get a lot more space freed up but I am unsure of how to do so. The code itself is fairly optimized for speed and we are using a DSP56k processor. Any suggestions would be appreciated! thank you
