how about:

DELETE FROM <MyTable>

in the database's SQL Tab?

This is what i'm doing right now but it would be much better
to have it on the "Task Panel" don't you think ?

Yes, you're right, particularly for testing purposes. And while we're on
the subject, how about a button to add 'x' rows of random data to a table?
A simple parameter file for each table is all it needs, and the other
object database, Caché (see www.intersystems.com/cache/ ) can do it.

Agree

Bit OTT for a db manager app I would think

Does it run like lightning then?

Well, I tried version 5.0 for a while and was very impressed.

I didn't adopt it in the end, primarily for the licensing cost - over £100
per user, which wouldn't work for my kind of clientèle. (but developers get
to use the single-user version for free)

At that price per user they can afford to do a lot of pretty things.

Michael,

There is, but it isn't exposed.  There are some issues with using the empty
functionality with RI that may generate more support questions than we care
to handle right now.

Michael,

And yes, the alternative is to use DELETE FROM MyTable for now.
