First off, let me say that I love this program! It makes database work so much easier and saves me so much time. Thank you!

I have database that includes an area to upload a graphic for each record. It’s working great, but I didn’t see anything in the documentation about a “delete” command. Is there an easy way to do this (from the record detail form, for example) to delete the attached file? I see that uploading a new file seems to overwrite the old one, but I can’t figure out how to delete all together, without deleting the whole record.

I’m fairly new to mySQL and PHP, so I’m sorry if there is a really simple answer that I am not aware of.

Hi, Thanks for the compliments.

You have identified somewhat of a feature gap that has been on my mind for some time. Surprisingly you are the first person to bring it up, so it has slipped through the cracks - even though it would be very simple to add this functionality.

If you add this as a feature request to the issue tracker that will force me to add this feature

Best regards

Steve

I’m glad to know I wasn’t overlooking something! I have added the feature request and look forward to future updates.
