Hi Renoir.
>Does Stonefield handle packing of deleted records?
Yes. It's part of the Reindex functionality, because when a table is packed, the indexes also need to be rebuilt. We don't actually use the PACK command (just as we don't use the REINDEX command), but instead use a SQL SELECT to copy non-deleted records to a new table, and handle the cleanup (eg. renaming and deleting files, fixing the backlink in the DBF header, etc.) When you call the Reindex method, you can specify that packing should be done as well, or you can let the user decide that if you display a dialog.
