Delete

Allows the user to delete an existing standard from the standards database file. Note that this is a permanent deletion from the standards database. The program will ask you to confirm the deletion. If it becomes necessary to use the standard again for quantitative analysis, it will have to be re-entered using the New menu item above.

Be careful about deleting any standards from the database. Remember, if a standard has been deleted that has been used in a quantitative run and later one uses that run as a setup or simply wants to re-process the data again, the program will be unable to load that standard composition or even worse, might load the wrong composition if the standard was deleted and the same number was used for another standard composition.
