Add links to the Metabase, Rds system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    mb: IMetabase;
    RdsDictObj: IMetabaseObject;
    DictInst: IRdsDictionaryInstance;
    DictBatch: IRdsDictionaryBatch;
    DelBatch: IRdsDictionaryBatchDelete;
Begin
    // Get current repository
    mb := MetabaseClass.Active;
    // Get dictionary
    RdsDictObj := mb.ItemById("DICT").Edit;
    DictInst := RdsDictObj.Open(Null) As IRdsDictionaryInstance;
    // Create a batch for deleting elements
    DictBatch := DictInst.CreateBatch(RdsDictionaryBatchType.Delete);
    If DictBatch.BatchType = RdsDictionaryBatchType.Delete Then
        DelBatch := DictBatch As IRdsDictionaryBatchDelete;
        // Set the end date of value validity for elements
        DelBatch.CloseDate := DateTime.Parse("30.12.2999");
    End If;
    // Delete elements and display result in the console window
    Debug.WriteLine("Number of processed elements: " + DelBatch.Execute.ToString);
    Debug.WriteLine(Number of deleted elements:  + DelBatch.Count.ToString);
    RdsDictObj.Save;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example a batch for deleting elements is created, the end date of value validity for elements is set to 30.12.2999. The number of processed and deleted elements is displayed in the console window.
