see "Delete Sent Patients" button for instructions how to delete all sent patients from the laptop.

Data is stored as records in CCMDB.accdb (e.g. a patient, a lab, a diagnosis, a tmp entry) and occasionally a record needs to be deleted.

To delete an individual record, navigate to the record you want to delete. For example

  • the labs tab on a patient
  • the Patient List to delete an entire patient

Once you are on the form with the record,

  • click on the rectangle before the record ("1" on picture).
  • A triangle/arrow will appear inside that rectangle ("2" on picture), showing that the record has been selected.
  • Click the delete button on your keyboard
  • accept the deletion message

The record will now be gone. You will not be able to undo this delete, so make sure you are doing what you are intending to.
