In this same vein as the original poster, I made a big oops the other night. I was trying to trim down the singers database. I listed all the singers and then sorted by # of entries. I highlighted all the ones that had 0 (zero) songs and hit delete. What in fact happened is I deleted A-R. Not what I had highlighted.

Luckily, I had a backup for just such an emergency

That's scary.

It happen to me last year loss a-lot of info and reported my findings,
Hopefully it will be fixed for 4.10

A short Venue list could have made it more easily noticable.

A 50 Name Venue database is easier to organize and notice screw up's Much faster then a 500 name Singers database.

Don't you think so? Marklwood?

Actually, it wouldn't do me any good. I own the bar. I only have one venue. You just made me chuckle. I know your thoughts on this and I just liked the way you slipped it in. If I were in your position I would agree that it would be handy to have a venue selection.

I don't disagree with any of the comments and in truth the real solution would be to fix the delete problem after sorting.

I have a handfull of NULL entries against my singer list which were created when I accidentally hit S+ with nothing selected. These I cannot delete. Can anybody help?
