I am seriously considering removing the "F7=Select Records" functionality of WRKDBF and have been for a long time. With the vastly superior "F18=SQL" functionality it is basically obsolete in my opinion. The scan limit (which defaults to 5000 records read) often reads too few records to fill up a subfile page, which in turn confuses the user into thinking they're looking at all the selected records. Not. I personally never press F7 - ever.

But I don't want to mess up people if it is an often-used function. So what say you? Can I remove without causing too many issues?
