Depending upon what the database is to hold and how you have your tables done you may not be able to.

Once you have all the data inputed do a compact on it and see what happens.

Ineffect the answer means you may not be able to make the database smaller, since what data you are keeping.

Try a Tab, comma, or any other non-user entered character to delimit it to a text file (access can use a text file).
