Call Delete to remove the active record from the database. If the dataset is inactive, Delete raises an exception. Otherwise, Delete:

• Verifies that the dataset is not empty (and raises an exception if it is).
• Calls CheckBrowseMode to post any pending changes to a prior record if necessary.
• Calls the BeforeDelete event handler.
• Deletes the record.
• Frees any buffers allocated for the record.
• Puts the dataset into dsBrowse mode.
• Resynchronizes the dataset to make the next undeleted record active. If the record deleted was the last record in the dataset, then the previous record becomes the current record.
• Calls the AfterDelete event handler.
