Help-- Deleting from a SEQUENTIAL FILE

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

Use Qtp to copy the file to a new file, selecting the records you want
to keep.

 

If the file is ugly then you can do this in two steps - copy the data
into a subfile, delete the original file, build a new empty file, copy
the subfile to the new file. Wait, I guess that's four steps!
