1st if you want to do this why not

delete for empty(myfield)
pack

and 2nd why are you using append blank. This is a bad strategy as it is slower, requires a temporary lock of the table header which can lead to problems in a big multiuser environment and you end up with blank records when there is an error.

What I do is store all data for new records in the controls. When the user commits to adding the record use the

insert into mytable (field1,field2 etc) values (thisform.control1.value, etc)

Insert into doesn't lock the table header, is faster than append and you don't end up with blank records.
