Performs the menu command Edit ­ Delete.

Syntax

@Command( [EditClear] )

Usage

This command executes after all @functions. Use @Command([Clear]) to execute immediately. See the Order of evaluation for formula statements topic for more details.

• In a view, folder, or a document in Read mode in a Notes application, marks the currently selected document for deletion.
• In a document in Edit mode, deletes the highlighted data (text, tables, graphics, links, file attachments, or objects).
• In Web applications, only use this command on a form to delete the entire current document. It cannot be used to delete highlighted data on a form in Edit mode; if executed on a form, it deletes the entire document. You cannot use this command to mark selected documents in a view for deletion. Use the MoveToTrash @Command instead. To customize the "Deleted" confirmation page returned by the server, create a form named "$$ReturnDocumentDeleted." See Customizing "Form processed" confirmation for the Web in the Application Development with Domino Designer guide for details.
• Using this command followed by @Command([EditGotoField]) produces an error.
• In Notes applications, when this command is called on a form, subform, view, or folder in Design mode, deletes the highlighted data, fields, or columns.
• On the workspace, removes the selected icon (without permanently deleting the database from disk).
• This command executes only after the entire formula has been evaluated regardless of whether @Command or @PostedCommand is used.
• It is most convenient to use a toolbar button to invoke this command.
