How to delete records permanently from dbf file using vb6
- Thread starter gagdeep
- Start date
Hi
Dbase, long time ago.
As I remember it in DBase/FoxPro/Clipper to permenantly delete records you needed to execute a PACK command, which reorganised the dbf, physically removing deleted records, rebuilt indices and released space from deleted records.
