I recognize this as an issue.

I have also seen instances of the "commercial" file type not getting deleting this way.

The database constraints on referrential integrity are some of the causes of these two issues.

Also, the way I have coded the delete function contributed.

What I will do is create a dialog box that prompts the user to confirm whether historical records can be deleted for the selected file (commercial or news), that needs to be deleted.

Please expect this fix in the next release.

Thanks for reporting it.

This works for songs, but it doesn't delete news clips.

Here are a couple of ways to do this:

1. By editing the records one at a time
a. Search for the file that you want to delete
b. Select it from the result list and click on the Edit button (this takes you to the Media Editor screen)
c. Click on the delete button from the toolbar

2. An easier way to do this would be to click on the button that looks like a funnel (filter) found on the Media Editor toolbar. This brings a screen with three buttons. One of the buttons has "Analyze" on it. Clicking the "Analyze" button returns two lists of Media files. The first list has files missing, a record exists in BP2X but the Audio file it is pointing to is missing. The second list has those records whith associated files that have different lengths (can happen if someone edits the audio files or trunctates them after importing into BP2X). You can highlight the files from the lists that you want to delete and click on the assciated button.

I will try to write a tutorial or help page on this one in the following weeks.

Let me know how it goes.
