I've thought about this and since this is a network I believe that will be less intrusive towards others on the network if they happen to be working with this particular table than the 'emptytable which literally turns the table off if I understand this correctly.  I do have a process in the menu and encourage cleaning (packing) tables'.  Correct me if I'm wrong please....... If it's on a network, why are you letting anyone empty the table (delete records) in the first place? If it is a temporary table, there are probably better ways of handling it. What happens if two people are doing the same process that use that table? There's a lot of potential problems here ...
