linked tables to another Access db

Hi, I am using a linked table to identify which records to update
another linked table from the same database. I need to compact this
database during this process as it gets too big. I therefore need the
database to be closed before I can compress and this wont be the case
as I have a recordset opened to the linked table.

What is the best way to code this to get around this problem? Should I
just make a copy of the table in the Control db (ie the one that runs
the process)? Or is there a more efficient method?
