Read Db Limit by John Miller @ 12/15/2016

Our Access data base reached it's limit 3 days ago. I was able to off load enough data to get it up again. Now I have a problem when we go to enter orders into the order entry form or add notes on any previous order, it will not allow any typing from the keyboard and the save record menu choice is grayed out. It tells me that that choice is not available. It also acts the same way on the safe record button on the form. Need help quickly I have been at this for about 40+ hours.

Reply from Alex Hedley:

Have you tried a backup and repair?
You could try splitting the db into multiple tables in each and then join them all into one master with all the Front End stuff there?
