2 User Data Export files all of a sudden?

Today, I Exported my "User Data" file today and discovered that I had 2 UD files all of a sudden. What happened? Does it create a new one once the file list becomes a certain size? If not, then how can I get rid of the second UD file?

    I believe there is a maximum size, so if the data needs more you get two files (or more).

    It did not create a second UD file on my Laptop installation. But, let's go with your thought here. Is it possible to delete a second UD file, then try Exporting again to test it? When I deleted the second UD file from the "Support" folder that didn't remove it.

    You can delete (or move) the user data files and try exporting again.

    I did delete the actual Data 2 file, physically, but the reference remained under the DB Maintenance.

    You mean in Reimport Metadata?

    No, when I select Export Data the second Data file remains in the list, even after I delete that file from the "Support" folder.

    I have my answer. I deleted all of the export data information. It then disappeared from the re-import list. I backed it up again and two Data files appeared. So, you're right about the file size.
