MetaLocator tracks the filename from which each record originated and you can search by that field to help isolate and delete a bad import.  To search for a specific source file, go to "Data > All Records".  Then, expand the Search & Select control as shown here:

Notice that in the above screenshot, we selected a specific Source File.  Once you have identified the source file you would like to isolate, choose it from the drop-down and click Create Selection.
