What happens when my Pt database gets full?

If I undertand corectly it peaks out at 240K hands. When This happens and I have to start a new database will all the player notes and stats I have in the old database be of no use to me?

Will I still be able to access them while I play?

While I can't answer the question directly, I'd like to add a question of my own.

The problem with the database format is that it's basically an access database and it's common knowledge that they have a limit to how much they can hold in them.

My question is: Does anyone know of any handler that would allow you to use a MySQL database in place of the standard access database that PT uses? The benefits of this would be potentially two-fold, first MySQL databases don't suffer from the same limitations that access databases do, and secondly it may allow multiple machines/people to access and add data to the same database at the same time.

I did some brief searching and didn't really find anything that would allow you to do this, if anyone knows a way to get PT to load an ODBC connection, or some way to get a MySQL database to work in PT I'd be interested in hearing about it /images/graemlins/smile.gif
