Record is too large MS Access runtime error

Question

I have an abnormally large table for one of my applications in MS Access. It violently breaks some rules of normalization, but is otherwise fine for this small application.

Answer 1

Memo fields are likely to be the answer. The record limitation rules do not include memo data type.

Answer 2

Maybe is too late, but i solved this problem compacting/reparing the database file

Answer 3

Seems the limit for fields is 2000 bytes (Memo and OLE are not counted with this restriction). With ~100 fields, you are likely to be hitting that limit.

Solutions are to normalize the table, or convert some fields to Memo fields.
