| The Delete button is used to delete an existing record in the table. It can be selected by:
|
| · | Clicking the button with the left mouse button, or
|
| · | Pressing, and holding down, the <CTRL> key and pressing the <D> key (the underlined letter), or
|
| · | Selecting Edit on the Menu Bar, then selecting Delete Hi-Lighted Record
|
| Doing any of the above displays a dialog box prompting for confirmation to delete the selected record.

Records are not physically removed from the file when they are deleted, but are marked with an X in the Del column.

|
| Deleted records are physically removed when the file is packed & indexed. Marking records with an X instead of removing them immediately allows records to be recalled (i.e., undeleted).
