Database: You Can Delete Record Without Entirely Selecting It

MORE INFORMATION

To delete an entire record from a Works Database in list view, you can also use the following method:

1. Choose any field entry in the record by placing your cursor in that field.
2. From the Insert menu, choose Delete Record/Field (in Works 2.x, choose Delete Record/Field from the Edit menu).
3. Select Record and choose the OK button.

When you use this method, Works asks you if you want to delete the record or delete the field the cursor is in. When you use the "Microsoft Works User's Guide" method, Works doesn't require a choice about the field or record.

NOTE: The Works 4.0, 4.5, and 4.5a for Windows 95 online help correctly describes how to delete a record.
