Deleting Records
You may want to delete an old or obsolete record.
To delete a record:
1 Return to Fill view if you are not in it already.
2 Choose
Delete Record
in the Records menu.
3 Click
Yes
in the warning dialog box that appears.
The record you are viewing is deleted permanently from the
database.
Use the command
Delete All Records
to permanently destroy all database
records. You can also use the command to delete a subset of retrieved
search records.
Suppose, for example, you have 14 entries for PatEl Corporation in your
customer update database. Then they go out of business and you decide
you no longer need the information because it just takes up disk space.
You would search for
PatEl Corporation
in the relevant field, and then
choose
Delete All Records
in the Records menu. All PatEl Corporation
entries would be permanently deleted but the other records would be
safe.
You cannot undo the
Delete Record
command!
