px_delete_record — Deletes record from paradox database

### Description

bool px_delete_record ( resource `$pxdoc` , int `$num` )

This function deletes a record from the database. It does not free the space in the database file but just marks it as deleted. Inserting a new record afterwards will reuse the space.

> Note: This function is only available if pxlib >= 0.6.0 is used.

### Parameters

`pxdoc`

  Resource identifier of the paradox database as returned by px_new().

`num`

  The record number is an artificial number counting records in the order as they are stored in the database. The first record has number 0.
