Exclusive access to the DB is required!!
}
uses
ComObj;
function CompactAndRepair(DB: string): Boolean; {DB = Path to Access Database}
var
v: OLEvariant;
begin
Result := True;
try
v := CreateOLEObject('JRO.JetEngine');
try
V.CompactDatabase('Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source='+DB,
'Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source='+DB+'x;Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=5');
