>This notion of , a record is not really deleted until a “Pack” is strange to me and is causing me to reconsider some basic design philosophies. If the user deletes a record from a table that has a primary key, is there a way for that user to re-enter that record before a pack procedure? If not then how to VFP programmers get around this?
Alan,
I agree with what everyone has said. There is a KB article on my website that explains how to use primary keys and a routine that you can use to create them.
