I haven't yet got to the point that Jim Cummins has reached - my EndNote
library is just over 2Mb (4000 records) - but I have found that by using
DiskDoubler to create a self-extracting archive, I can save around 70% of
this, so that my library, when compressed, still fits on an ordinary 800Kb
floppy disk.

This raises the thought that some future version of EndNote might include
some degree of file compression, or even its own file compression utility,
which would be a great help for backing up and archiving purposes.
