Hi Hayley,
I'd suggest taking a look at creating a portable company file and then restoring it.
Check out this KB for instructions and other tips on getting the best performance from your file -

I use the Clean up Company Data regularly for many clients. Make sure you resort all list to their original order and verify your data file before commencing. Do a screen dump of the product info (Click ctrl+1) and check usage information after the first cleanup and list information after the final "#". Depending of the number of transactions I do it in increments of 6 or 12 months, it may take some time. I select all under "Additional Criteria for removing transactions" leave the unused list items to begin with. NB you will end up with multiple archive files, I keep the first one, rename appropriately "ABC pre 30/6/2014, change the admin password and remove all other users. Once I've completed say clean up to say 30/6/14. # Now run the clean up once more for the same date and select all under " unused list items" finally create a portable file and restore it.

Hi Jacqui,
Just to make this clear to other users who may read this, the clean-up data utility doesn't actually reduce the size of data files. This is clearly stated before you proceed to use the utility. See below:
The best way to reduce the size of a data file is to follow the KB article Rav posted at the start of this thread and to also create a portable file and restore it.
Luke.
