Ok. This is really weird.
When i was using my database it crashed and access shot down. But then i just opened access and continued working on the database. Now i just noticed that when the database crashed new file got created myDB35_Backup which i did not create. Name of the database is myDB35. Also i noticed that myDB_Backup is alot larger than myDB35. The back up one is 18mb and my original file is down to 12mb. Previous copy of the db myDB34 is 17mb so the size of the backup file that got created is more realistic. Another weird thing is that myDB35 seems to be working fine. It seems like it just got compressed. Do you guys have an explanation for that????
Thank you in advance

Ooops. It did "compact and repair" on close. Kind of scared me because i thought I lost some stuff. My apologies for unnecessary posting.
