The Windows degfragment API does provide a way to specify a buffer within a file, it's just that contig does not enable this. I'm working on a single-file defragmenter that does have that option, and it's integrated with Windows Explorer so you can simply right-click a file and select <I>Defrag</I> or <I>Defrag with options</I>.Charles Robinsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04606895130887441753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26049584.post-68070425497616180312009-04-21T10:20:00.000-04:002009-04-21T10:20:00.000-04:00Thanks for the info. I noticed however, that defrag.nsf goes a step further to maintain a certain database size, thus slowing down future re-defragmentation of the databases, something that will start after a contig. Not sure how practical all this would be a compact is usually each week. The free option is certainly to be considered.<br />Thanks again.<br />MichaelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
