Hi there, 

I'm working with a file of 50,000 records and have identified 75 records that need to be removed. I'm having trouble actually deleting them. Here are my steps: 

-Edit/Delete Records/Delete Selected
-Import the file with the 001 as the display field
-Enter Display field not found in the search box -- It selects 75 records 
-Delete Selected -- The process runs
-Save the file

Now, when go to Edit/Edit Shortcuts/Field Edits/Find Records with Missing Field they are all still there. 

Am I missing something? Is my file too big? 

Thanks in advance for any advice, 
Bronwen Bitetti
