Re: New compressible binary field to my table

My table already has an uncompressed binary field

So what I did was :-

1) Add a new binary column and tick 'Compressible' box.

2) copy the data from the uncompressed field to the new compressible field with

    update att set COMPRESS = UNCOMPRESS

3) Remove the old uncompressed field.

4) Packed the table.

The file size of the ADM file is exactly the same.
