Destroy Frames
Use the Destroy operation to completely delete a frame from the application. When you destroy a frame, you cannot later insert it into the application or perform any other operations on it.
Destroy a frame only if you are sure that you do not want to use it again; for example, if you specify the wrong tables or forget to include a Detail table.
When you destroy a frame, Vision:
• Removes any lower level frames in its family, but does not destroy them. You can insert any of these frames as described earlier in this chapter.
• Destroys any local variables and escape code (described in Using Vision Advanced Features) that you have created for the frame.
To destroy a frame
1. Select the frame as the current frame.
2. Select Destroy.
Vision asks you to confirm that you want to destroy the frame.
3. Select yes.
Vision destroys the current frame.
Any frames below it in its tree are removed (but not destroyed) from the application flow diagram. To destroy any of these frames, repeat the above procedure.
