Quick question RE the PT database-- what exactly is happening when you "compact" it?
And isn't the "move to x file when I close this import box" doing something to help as well?
I am saving mine to an external hard drive-- will this help, or are we all doomed to run into ct's problem eventually?

Only around 23k hands (just started using PT dedicatedly at the beginning of the year).
At about what point should we expect to have to start a new one (assuming regular compacting maintenance)?
Too late to edit. Include your processor speed, hard drive size and amount of RAM and I can figure out how long you have before you are screwed.
Forgot about this thread.
If your current size is correct you will be able to store about 200k hands before it fills up. You have plenty of processing power and space to handle this. Access mdb can only be 2GB before it dies.
When you get to 200k there are ways around having to start a new database. Let me know when you get there.
