Good day to everyone.

I have linked a table of dbaseIII (.dbf) format. If I run
an action query namely delete query all records inside
that table looks deleted but if I open it in a database
viewer the records are still there. I have to use the
command "Pack" to completely remove the records. Can you
tell me how can I completely remove the records from this
dbf-formatted table without using the command "pack"?

Thank you very much.
 
Hi Arvin

You would have to pack the .dbf files using:

- the application which the dbf files are part of.
- DBase itself (i.e. DBase III, DbaseIV, other newer Dbase)
- there might be third party utility to pack a dbf file, you may have to do
a search on DBase.
