	If it only has 10,000 messages it should compact down to around 15Mb, which will also increase the speed of your forum. Also I wouldn't be surprised, with a database of that size, that your web host may step in and ask you to remove it for using up to many server resorces as each time someone goes to your forum the server has to open a 100Mb file thuse slowing down the server for everyone using it, not just your site.

	Just curious, if you're getting that much traffic and whatnot, wouldn't it make sense to move to a SQL Server DB instead? Access DBs are not meant for heavy use. Sounds like you're just using the wrong technology.
