Help needed about sql compression

[onurcan1977]

Hi, I'm trying to make an sql database and use it while it is compressed.

I want to compress it because I guess that its size will become so big. I've found an air application which can compresses files and uncompress files. But my codes can't open gz file.

Is it possible to use gz database?

there is an unzip/tarzip class out there for AS3, FZip; however I've never attempted to access a compressed db with it. If I am concerned about space/size; I'd embed a SQLite db and sync as need be via HTTPService if I had to... just a thought.

Thanks for your reply gerbick. I'll search for embedding SQLite db.
