Request deletion of entry from database

Postby jellac » Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:43 am

Lucy -

Can you delete a horse that is entered twice but under two different names?

I entered "Casa Fina" from a sales record for the offspring of the mare Seda Fina. But I just learned that a During X Seda Fina 2YO just broke his maiden under a slightly different name - so the "Casa Fina" entry needs to go.....Apparently the purchaser at acution changed the colt's name from "Casa Fina" to "Su Casa G Casa".

Thanks in advance for your assistance with this request.

Looks like someone already took care of it. :)

For future reference, any DB user can delete horses, as long as they are not locked, and have no progeny. Just select 'delete a horse' from the maintenance menu. Any additional info (color, etc) should be removed before you delete the entry.
