If possible on your host, I'd stop the web app before downloading it and restart when it's uploaded again.

When you compact and repair an access db off line and then upload it to the sebsite, be sure to delete any existing .lck file on the website. It tracks who's on the db and what they're doing - where. An existing one won't line up with the compacted db. If you delete it, it will be recreated when the compacted db is first accessed.


Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

The access version of teh forum has a compact and repair feature built into the admin section so you shouldn't need to download the database.
