DELETE Statement
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Action

 Removes the current record from an ISAM table.


 Syntax

  DELETE -#-  filenumber%


 Remarks

 The argument  filenumber% is the number used in the  OPEN statement to open
 the table.

 If the record you delete is the last record according to the table's current
 index, the current position is at the end of the table and there is no
 current record. When you delete any other record in the table, the record
 following the deleted record becomes current.  The record preceding the
 deleted record remains the previous record.
