Hey guys,

When utilising MapInfo Extended writer DELETE operation, the features are flagged for deletion, however the database is not "packed" at the end, and I have to go into map info to perform this operation to permanently remove these features. This causes large file sizes if there are constant deletions and additions on a native x file.

Thanks,

James
