No. However Money will do it on its own is it thinks the file has
grown by some amount.

You could try opening Money with Start-> Run and entering
"msmoney -s" without the quotes into the box. However that may make
the file larger for a while rather than smaller; I can't predict. I
would do it anyway to re-sync the database.

Default Compact Money file

I want to remove some information in my Money 2003 data
file. This is about half of all data in the file. I can
delete the information inside Money. But, the size of the
Money data file remains the same. Looks like Money does
not physically remove the deleted data from the file. Is
there any way to "compact" the data file to remove deleted
data physically as in Access database?
