DmRemoveRecord will remove the record from the database and free the chunk
of memory it took up. DmNumRecords will not count the record because it
won't be there anymore.
If you use DmDeleteRecord only the 'delete' bit in the record gets set. It
then gets moved to the end of the database. It's still there so it gets
counted by DmNumRecords.

Subject: DmNumRecords Error
Hey, I need to find out how many records there are in a database. Using the
DmNumRecords function works pretty good until I delete a record. Then the
next time it gets called it still returns the same numbers of records it did
before the delete. Is there any way I can get around this or any other way I
can get the number of database records?
