PURPOSE:To retrieve records at a high sped to efficiently use intra-block space by not using intra-block scan search to retrieving records and deleting the header to a deleted record from the block. CONSTITUTION:When a record 32b is deleted from a block 23, a record header 33b is deleted from the block 23 also. At this time, it is discriminated that the record following a record 32a corresponding to a record header 33a is deleted, a counter 35a of the record header 33a physically following the header 33b is counted up by +1. As the result, contents of the counter 35a are '1'. The record 32b and its record header 33b disappear in the block 23 by record compression in this state. In the block 23, the counted value of the counter 35a of the record header 33a is increased.
