The question is simple but not complete. You can delete records using COBOL or utilities like SORT or FILEAID or combination of SORT & REPRO etc. either as online or batch.

Let us know what you are trying to accomplish.

1. Do you have a particular key to be deleted or a range of keys ?
2. Is this just for some test purposes ? do you want to delete a record only one time ?


Thanks,
Phantom
