Yes I know Bill
If I do it without where clause it works fine ( but in 2.11 a where
clause was required)
I will retest with the where clause that should actually be where aar =
1
On the two lines where I need it the rest I can do without a where
clause I am sure I shall find a work around where no workaround should
be needed this should work:

del rows fro transfg          where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro verfg            where vernr is not null or vernr is null
del rows fro ibub             where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro hbfg             where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro ibfg             where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro trans            where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro ib               where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro ub               where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro ubfg             where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro hb               where kontonr is not null or kontonr is
null
del rows fro verifik          where vernr is not null or vernr is null

but it does not so I will work around the problem. But I can add I
rather work around the problem In R:Base then in MS Access that some
clients forested me to work with

Gunnar,

This type of where clause, that finds every single row, was the way we 
had to do it in 2.11, when DELETE required a WHERE clause. 
Beginning with version 3.0, you could do the same thing this way:

del rows fro transfg  
del rows fro verfg     
del rows fro ibub     
del rows fro hbfg     
del rows fro ibfg      
del rows fro trans    
del rows fro ib         
del rows fro ub        
del rows fro ubfg     
del rows fro hb       
del rows fro verifik     

It will be way faster, because it will just reset the beginning row/end 
row and counters to zero. It won't try to use indexes. That alone may 
solve your problem. It may be that you have a corrupted index.

A PACK or RELOAD would also repair the indexes, and would 
squeeze out all the deleted space.

Bill
