Absolute Database Engine supports free space recycling and auto-shrinking of the database file, but sometimes it is still necessary to remove all empty space from the database file.
You can compact database file via Absolute Database DBManager utility (...\AbsoluteDatabase\Ultils\Bin\DBManager.exe).
Compacting database file in application code is implemented through the CompactDatabase method of TABSDatabase component.
Compacting a database could be a lengthy process if you are working with large database. Use BeforeCompact, OnCompactProgress and AfterCompact event handlers to display the progress of a compacting database process.
