+
+**Example**:
+
+Selecting *NA00001* and *NA00003* from the following VCF line::
+
+ #CHROM POS     ID        REF ALT QUAL FILTER INFO                              FORMAT      NA00001        NA00002      NA00003
+ 20     1110696 rs6040355 A   G,T 67   PASS   NS=2;DP=10;AF=0.333,0.667;AA=T;DB GT:GQ:DP:HQ 1|2:21:6:23,27 2|1:2:0:18,2 2/2:35:4:.,.
+
+will, obviously, remove *NA00002*::
+
+ #CHROM POS     ID        REF ALT QUAL FILTER INFO                              FORMAT      NA00001        NA00003                                                  
+ 20     1110696 rs6040355 A   G,T 67   PASS   NS=2;DP=10;AF=0.333,0.667;AA=T;DB GT:GQ:DP:HQ 1|2:21:6:23,27 2/2:35:4:.,.
