Re: Power-cut

I have MS ver 5.11, w/downloader ver 4.11.  The way I do what you
request is to go to Downloader, click Tools, click Delete, then Data. 
Highlight the first issue, hold down the Shift key on your keyboard,
then scroll to the last issue and highlight it.  This should have all
issues from first to last highlighted.  Type in the last date you want
to keep, select the "delete after" checkbox, (re-check your date and
YEAR) then OK.  This should delete all data after the date you have
selected.  

Hope this answers your request.
