I can fill the CA cursor with all records, delete records, and then call tableupdate(). But my questions is, how practical this approach if the table can have up to (max) 10,000 records. This is a VFP database (not SQL Server).
You do not know that you have to have exclusive access to a table to ZAP or PACK it?
