batch method to delete data from multiple databases

[Jose Lerebours]

Look at syntax for ddir, following its syntax, write a menu option with 
a script behind it and in that script, write a ddir [filename] -k -m 
"[qualname] -h "removing key for [filename]"

-k pops for some reason as if I've used this before ... lol

So yes, it is possible - look at 'ddir' for details
