9 Delete Data Sources

This topic provides systematic instructions to delete data sources.

1. Under DataSource node, right-click on the data source to be deleted and select the Delete option.
2. Or click on the Delete icon in the top left of the data source screen to delete the data sources.
   When a data source is deleted, all the references to that data source or its columns will also be deleted from the Radxml, that is Data block fields referring to the particular data source column and all the references to those data block fields.

   Note:

   The deletion of any element from Radxml is allowed only if that element has been created in the current release. If the data source has been created in a previous release, then the developer won’t be allowed to delete the data source.

   Similarly, the data source column alone can be deleted from the data source subjected to the condition mentioned above. Proper care has to be done while designing data sources as redesigning would be impossible in a later release.
