File bloat in FM

I am trying to diagnose the cause of "file bloat" in some older FM files I
have inherited. I suspect that something was once imported with OLE, but
the file is empty of graphics and other objects now, just a few pages of
text, but it still "weighs in" at 22MB (other files with the same template
are a few hundred KB).

I'd like to delete the traces of whatever object there once was but I can't
find anything to delete. When I export it to MIF there are however
thousands of lines of binary code. Can I simply delete them?

Many thanks,

David
