If the max size of an Access DB is about 2gb, and the DB is split, does each
item have its own 2 gb limit or does the combined size of linked tables add to
the size of the FE to get to the limit?

This is from A97 help
Database (.mdb) file size 1 gigabyte. However, because your database can
include linked tables in other files, its total size is limited only by
available storage capacity.
IOW, you could have a very, very large database with a combination of
multiple mdbs if one so desired.

And, yes, in Access 2000 and later the size of a single MDB was increased to
2GB.
Some have, in fact, used multiple databases and linked tables to circumvent
the limit, but most move to a client-server environment when the database
approaches this size.

Hi Larry. I was under the impression you didn't gain much from the 1
gig increase to 2 gig size since it used Unicode. How does Unicode
affect file size?

I would be grateful if someone could clarify my rather confused ideas of the

that XP is really a client op sys with limited server capability, I am also

As I understand it XP Pro will support 10 simultaneous inbound (SYN)

Want to replace the limit clause in a query, but can't get it right.
What's wrong with this:
$pattern = "(.*)limit (.*)";
$replacement = '$1';
$replacement .= "LIMIT $limit";
$replacement .= '$2';
$query = preg_replace ($pattern, $replacement, $query);
