Asentria Feature Guide
TeleBoss Delete Function
(Revised 11 November 2020)



Delete File(n)

SA <filename> will release the data to the text editor, example SA (FILE1).

Adding a d to that command string will delete the records in the file, example SA (FILE1) d.

The disadvantage to deleting files this way is that if a file is very full it can take a long time to release to the text editor. The shortcut that increases the speed to clear a single file is to check how many records in the file using the dir command and then do a SA FILEn @recordCountMinusAFew D.

That deletes all the records too. So here is an example of me doing that:

>dir
Filename     Records
FILE1      00000792
FILE2      00000151
EVENTS     00000840
AUDIT      00001734
COMPLETE
>sa file1 @790 D
Test Record 1234563456789d123456789
Test Record 1234563456789d123456789

END DATA

>dir
Filename     Records
FILE1      00000000
FILE2      00000151
EVENTS     00000840
AUDIT      00001736
COMPLETE

To delete all records in all files, including the Audit and Event files, you can use execc dllcmd zero. That is a one shot command, but beware - it clears ALL files.
