Deleting Data Files

Command: File -> Delete ->

The command File/Delete provides two options to delete data files:

ASC File... delete an ASC file
IDT File... delete an IDT file

After selecting the type of file to be deleted the user has to select from the following file dialog:

This dialog for loading files provides more information on the data files than common Windows file dialogs. In addition to the filename, the dialog shows the date of the last modification and the comment stored along with the data. The list of available files can be sorted by any column by simply clicking the corresponding heading.

In the case you have a high number of data files you may want to narrow down the list of files by filling in the file filter field. This should help to find a particular file more easily. If the filter text is not empty all files are shown which contain the text either in the file name or in the comment.
