I use the Add and Delete buttons from VFP7 Wizard classes. So, through my form in can add records, but there is a problem to delete them, because the record i want to delete doesn't appeared in the form, but it still be present in the table.Please tell me how can i delete from table too.
Thanks

When you delete a record, you are actually only "marking" a record to be deleted at a later. Some people might find that an advantage, to be able retrieve records that were de elete by mistake. But to remove records that are marked for deletion you need to PACK your table.

Note: To do a PACK, you must be able to open the table EXCLUSIVE - not always possible in a multi-user environment.
