Hello,

Let me try to clarify what you're after. Do you want to remove an observation (which will affect all series on that workfile page) or just move data within a series (leaving other series on the page unmodified)?

thnx for reply,
yes the second choice, but the modify on selected series and don't affect on ID date only remove the observation and replace it with next obs.
