Delete Command [D]
Removes entries from a dataset.
DELETE [file] [;options]
Options: numeric-value|All|Key|Limit|Related|UNder
If you are deleting entries from a master dataset, all entries from related detail
datasets must be removed first. Before any record will actually be deleted, Delete
prints the record and asks you whether it is okay to delete it; the default answer is
NO.
The field list of the file specifies which fields to list before prompting for verification
of the deletion. The ALL option allows you to review all entries in a detail dataset
and remove some or all of them. The database password must give you write access
to the entire dataset. ALL does not work on master datasets; use the Suprtool >Delete
command instead.
You can delete records related to a master dataset, but not the other way around.
Dbedit does not print the detail records that are deleted. Use the List command with
the RELATED option before doing the deletion.
