Hi,

We are currently running Snitz Forums 2000 Version 3.4.05 with an access 2000 db which is now over 200mb in size, and without showing up as any bigger on the disk seems to randomly eat the rest of our 10gb of free space. Clearing some files followed by a compact and repair seems to solve this.

Do you think we've reached the end of the line for running this forum with an access dB? Is it easy to migrate to MSSQL without loosing the members/post data?

Cheers,

Dan

Well the move to SQL Server would indeed fix that. It's probably a wise move.

Here is info on how to do it: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=31144

No info is lost on the move, as long as it's done as explained.
