Deleting Procedure Records
There is generally no need to delete Procedure records from the database since
Procedure records may be edited and renamed as necessary. With this in mind, a
mechanism for deleting Procedure records does not exist within the DPC/TRACK
product.
Rebuilding & Deleting Sample Records
DPC/TRACK includes a handful of sample records to help you learn the program.
As you know by now, these sample records are extensively referred to within the
many examples provided in this manual. DPC/TRACK’s sample records are
designated as such through an internal setting within each database. Since nobody
can change this internal setting, DPC/TRACK can always differentiate the sample
records from your real records—even if the data appears to be exactly the same.
Therefore, you may edit, delete, and rebuild the sample records as often as you like
without affecting your real data. Indeed, you may want to require each new user to
work through the tutorial in Chapter 2, “DPC/TRACK Essentials,” with a fresh
copy of the sample records. The ability to rebuild and delete sample records is
restricted to those with Admin security rights.
Rebuilding
The following steps outline the procedure for rebuilding your sample records.
(When sample records are rebuilt, any existing sample records are first deleted.)
1. Select the System Setup button on the Main Menu to access the System
Setup screen.
2. Select the Rebuild Sample Records button. Respond Yes to continue.
3. Select the Main Menu button to return to the Main Menu
Note
If your database contains records with the same serial number as
any of the Sample Records, this Sample Record will not be rebuilt.
Deleting
1. Select the System Setup object on the Main Menu to access the System
Setup screen.
2. Select the Delete Sample Records button. Respond Yes to continue.
3. Select the Main Menu button to return to the Main Menu.
