Tip: You can load default settings for some tables.

Save the changes made to the current record.

Undo the:

  • new record added
  • changes made to the current record.

Delete the selected record.
The following confirmation message is displayed.


Note: Deleting records from certain tables can cause some functions within Synergetic to perform incorrectly. However, deleting records does not necessarily delete the data from any records it is stored against.

Tip: Alt+d deletes a highlighted record, while Alt+y confirms that you want to delete the record. These shortcuts are useful when deleting multiple entries.

Load default records for certain tables.
