Deleting data

Data can be deleted from templates by selecting and deleting rows and columns. Deleting a row deletes

the feature data contained within the row. Deleting a column deletes the feature data contained within the

column and eliminates the future display of the deleted column’s data type. In general, data are deleted

because columns were added earlier and are no longer required, or because the user wishes to clear the

contents of the runs database.

CAUTION

Delete Runs data with care, deleted data cannot be restored.

NOTE

Deleting columns from templates permanently changes the type of data that template

can display. If a column is mistakenly deleted from a template, a new template can be

generated to take its place containing the default columns, as described earlier in this

chapter.
