Re: "Reclaim space on closing" Error

Been there, done that. I've had that checked all along but still no go. As
long as it doesn't ask to compact the data base, it closes properly every
single time, but as soon as it is time to compact, it messes up. I used to
be able to open WLM and close it without doing anything and it would work
fine, but don't know what happened to it lately.
