      From: NSpamPlease_rodney1@bellsouth.net              Joe,              Using the Delete Query (as Steve has told you) is the best way to go.              However... be very careful... These items (with the Alpha characters) may       be linked to items in other tables. Once you delete them, the link is       broken and their children will be lost. (still exist, but not linked to       their parent item).              Unless you are absolutely "sure" that these items are NOT linked to other       items in other tables... I wouldn't simply delete them...              But if you do, I would recommend that you immediately rename the "Answer.db"       table which will be located in your Private directory to some other name...       such as "save.db" or something.... You may discover that you'll need to       add them back to their original table.                            --       ...        `·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·-> rodney              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
