Deleting duplicate WAB entries

Post by rhw2 »

Hi there.

The WAB database on my system has quite a number of entries duplicated as a result of my accidentally running the robot twice. Is there any way to delete the duplicates?

I seem to remember something about selecting the line with the entry and then pressing the delete key, but all that does is to remove the first character from the WAB square field on the left hand side.

Ideally, this would be done by right-clicking on the relevant line and choosing "Delete" from a menu that popped up, the same as other Windows programs use, but right clicking doesn't appear to achieve anything here...

Hello Riley

Deleting a record from a database is usually possible.

First click the cursor on the line to be deleted.

Now click on the leftmost column - the narrow grey one with the pointer, this will 'select' the entire row.

Press the delete key.

Hi Colin.

Many thanks. The key is to click on a square in the line in question prior to clicking on the grey box to select the line, as if one just clicks on the grey box without first clicking on one of the boxes in the line, it doesn't work.
