Re: Problem deleting correct record.

Paul, Your code looks good on the surface. The only oddity that I notice is that CurrentChoice needs to be Int32 when used in StrIToA and needs to be UInt16 when used in DmRemoveRecord. Thus, a guess is that the zero half of the Int32 is being used in DmRemoveRecord. Try fixing this. Keith
