That,s why over this novice head. My in dbase all I did was pack to get read of records. I was hoping Access had a way to delete records that you have already been marked for deleted.

PS I'm going back to dBase IV to remove records.

You're kidding yourself by guessing at what commands and processes do what.

Research some basic concepts.
