Trying to run a query on a large data set

ChaseCox

Hi everyone,

I am attempting to run a query on approx. 5 million static records. When I run the query I get an error that says database has reached maximum size. So I tried compacting/repairing. I then opend a new database and linked the table in, and when I ran the query I got the same results. Any thoughts?

The query is nothing out of the ordinary, and I can query other smaller tables without a problem.

You've maxed out the capabilities of Access, you'll need to upgrade or break your tables into smaller pieces.

The client submits the query to the server, separated by several states. It appears the query is retrieving gigs of data from the table and processing the joins on the client. Is there away to perform more of the work on the server there by minimizing the amount of extraneous table...

Does the total number of rows in a table determine the amount of resources required for a query?.. or is it primarily determined by the number of rows used by the query? ..Does an INDEX mean it doesn't have to read every row to find data? Context: I have a large dataset and am wondering if i should split it up into several smaller tables to reduce the resources required to search it... i would then have to predetermine which table to do the...
