    ZAP
    - It is a database command that permanently removes all records from files open in the current work area.

    - It also includes the current database file, index files, and associated memo file.

    - The disk space previously occupied by the ZAPped files is released to the operating system.

    - This command performs the same operation as DELETE ALL followed by PACK but is almost instantaneous.

    - To ZAP in a network environment, the current database file must be used exclusively.
