Re: Protocol for displaying subfile after deleting a record

At my location, we use almost exclusively page at a time subfile. So for us, 
reloading the subfile is natural and quick. But if you use a load all, from the 
user perspective, hole in the subfile should be filled and thus a subfile 
reload. If the reload is too long (maybe because ther are several thousand 
records to load), then maybe the program should be change to page at a time.

One potential idea. If the sorting in your load all subfile is not important, 
you could always move the last record of the subfile in the hole created by a 
deletion. This should not have big performance impact.

Hi all

I was wondering if any of you would share how you display a subfile after a
user deletes a record.  Do you totally reload and display from the
beginning, leave the record blank?  I am reloading and would like to think
there is a better way.  Thanks
