Delete Multiple Boreholes from the Database
Borehole Manager | Edit | Erase Disabled

Each borehole in a RockWorks project is stored as a record in the borehole manager database file. Use the Borehole Manager's Edit | Erase Disabled program to remove multiple borehole records from the current project database. This tool removes borehole records that are disabled (e.g. not checked).

Feature Level: RockWorks Basic and higher


  1. If necessary, access the project folder that contains the well data you wish to remove.
  2. Access the Borehole Manager as necessary.
  3. Recommended: make a backup of the current database using the File | Backup Database menu option.
  4. In the Name pane just to the left of the data tabs, remove the check-mark from the boreholes you wish to remove, to disable them.
    ! You can use the View / Filter Boreholes option to use database query tools to disable boreholes that meet specific criteria.
  5. Select the Edit | Erase All Disabled Boreholes command.
  6. The program will prompt you, "Delete all the information for every disabled borehole? The data is not recoverable."
  7. ! If you choose OK, the data in the disabled borehole records will be removed from the project database.

! Note that any existing grid (surface) or solid (plume) models you've already created using the now-deleted boreholes will NOT be automatically updated to reflect the data change. You'll need to re-generate models and graphics.
