does that still work if there are attr/value marks but everything else is null ?
not sure, never tried, but i know i've seen recs with nothing but these before
ellusian, lol, sounds like the aliens with the big brains that could make you see things that weren't there in star trek (had to look it up, it's talosians)

Sent: Friday, August 31, 2012 4:43 PM To: U2 Users List Subject: [U2] Friday type of question Is there an easy way to determine if a record is empty? I have a saved list of a thousand or more records that have record ID's that interfere with our Ellusian database. If they are truly empty, I can do house cleaning on them. If they contain any data, I have to do a different process. When I AE into a record I get :AE PERSON 2362 Top of "2362" in "PERSON", 0 lines. So, it is really empty. I believe there must be a better way than handling every one of them, but I have been away from Unidata and forgotten everything.
