If by that you mean ... You have C: D: E: and F: drive and you delete E:
and so lose F: drive (Partition), then that is incorrect. I have often
deleted a partition in the "sandwich" and merely make it again using
FDISK, either the same size, or cut in half, or whatever size I choose, so
long as it totals the complete orginal amount DELETEd. As it only sees the
space left by that partition, you can not make a mistake.

The only thing I have not been able to surmount was deleting the first, C:
partition, as well as the D: partition and joining the two to make it
larger. To do that, it appears that I have to destroy the entire disk or
join any two after C: and make them ACTIVE (A) and bootable. This is too
complicated as i have several OS running on two HDDs and this confuses the
OS. Regards, Jeff.
