---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Syntax

        ADEL(<aArray>, <nPos>) --> aTarget  

 Arguments

        <aArray>   Name of array from which an element is to be 
                  removed.

        <nPos>     Subscript of the element to be removed.    

 Returns

        <aTarget>   an array pointer reference.    

 Description

      This function deletes the element found at <nPos> subscript position
      in the array <aArray>. All elements in the array <aArray> below the
      given subscript position <nPos> will move up one position in the
      array. In other words, what was formerly the sixth subscript
      position  will become the fifth subscript position. The length of
      the array  <aArray> will remain unchanged,as the last element in the
      array will  become a NIL data type.

 Examples

     LOCAL aArray
      aArray := { "Harbour","is","Power" }      // Result: aArray is

      ADEL(aArray, 2)            // Result: aArray is
