Alan, if I understand you correctly, simply select the point or point objects,
you wish to remove, make that table editable of course, from the menu bar click
on Edit/Clear Map objects Only.

This will delete only the graphical representation of the record, the record
itself stays entact. This is essentially, UN-geocoding :)

One thing to remember, unless your record has some coordinate data (ie long lat
coords, UTM etc) they will no longer have any geographical representation and
will be essentially orphaned from your mapper.

Subject: MI-L destroy points


List, 
I would like to delete points in a table without actually deleting records. The
points were created based on lat long values. Some lat long values were blank,
and they were arbitrarily placed in the ocean. I could just move the points from
their arbitrary location to where I need them and then update the lat long
columns again, but it seems like there is an easier way that I am not seeing. It
seems simple, but I just can't find it. I could probably start over with the
table from its creation, and then create only the selected points, but I wonder
if there is a tool or function. 
Thanks, 
Alan
