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. Suprtool 5.5 for MPE Dbedit Commands • 341
