List,

You can FORCE_DELETE your incorrect or deleted AIM points.

I use a small script to do this.
Basically you do a histcsave, use the "histname"_del.inp file to filter o=
n deleted point and do a force delete for these point with histcbatch (yo=
u will see that the used index nr is gone but you will be able to put new=
 points in. without deleting your complete database and rebuild it and lo=
ose al you histdata.
 
Syntax for force_deleted is: 

1 DELETE POINT C:B.P NAME FORCE_DELETE

>Just another note. If you delete it in the historian you wont get your o=
riginal point added back into you license unless you undelete it. 
>This means deleting 1000 points costs 1000 points in you license. The on=
ly workaround found was to batch out the points and recreate the historia=
n to recover the license issue, or complain to your sales guy for a upgra=
de to the license. 
>The recreation of historian means loss of all previous data since the ma=
pping is different in the point numbers.
