Thank you, Brian.

I will try the Archive Old Data feature. I think I read something about it in the documentation. If I understood correctly, OF simply creates a new database with the archived stuff, right?
What I'm not sure about, is, do you get an archive database each time you archive something, or does it keep adding old stuff to the same archive DB?

Also, how does it work if I need to look up something that has been archived? Does OF open the archive database in addition to the regular one? Or must must I import it to the regular DB first?

Wow! Mine is 10.8 MB already, and I've been using OF for a just a few weeks! I have no clippings or embedded/attached files. I don't think I have nearly as many projects/tasks as you must have...

Should I Compact the database often?
I suppose that means OF makes the DB more efficient and smaller? What does it delete when you Compact it?
