       ftdelrow, h, tab, rows

       rows  -  scalar or vector, specifying the row numbers to delete
               This vector will be sorted and duplicates removed by FTDELROW

       Compress a table to include only non-negative flux values
       flux = FTGET(h,tab,'FLUX')       ;Obtain original flux vector
       bad = where(flux lt 0)           ;Find negative fluxes
       FTDELROW,h,tab,bad               ;Delete rows with negative fluxes

       Specified rows are deleted from the data array, TAB.  The NAXIS2
       keyword in the header is updated.
