The internals of a save file can change between operating system releases, which means that my version of this utility now no longer works (I’ve just checked!) – I’ll have to check on the net to see if I can find a new version, and I suggest that you should look there too.

There ARE other methods, but those can be stymied by the system authority level.

when magers were boys.

It was common to indicate a ‘deleted’ record by setting a field within the record to some value, and logically excluding records with that value from being used.

I suggest you invute your manager to update himself or herself.

If you think records may be deleted in error, get better users, or build in journal recovery, or anything else.

As they say in the shops – when it’s gone, it’s gone.

We’re not talking Mickey mouse^^^^^^ soft ‘are you sure’ stuff – You either delete a record or you don’t

It is possible to retrieve some parts of a deleted record, but SQL wouldn’t have a clue as to the underlying data layout as we are not talking externally described files/tables that you access. You need to parse through an object save of the underlying database file, a task I would normally not associate with SQL processing.
