Sorry if there is already a post on this(I cant seem to find it).
Is it possible to remove the confirmation message when running a delete query? i know you can remove all the other query confirmations through tools>options etc but i cant seem to get rid of this one.
Thanks

below is my code. The prompt works but the record never deletes.
Any Idea's
Private Sub cmdDeleteRec_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdDeleteRec_Click
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this record?", vbYesNo, "Warning.........") = vbYes Then
Me!frm_Entry.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End If
Exit_cmdDeleteRec_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdDeleteRec_Click:
MsgBoxErr.Description , vbExclamation, "Error #" & Err.Number
Resume Exit_cmdDeleteRec_Click
End Sub

I have a query based on two tables, joined on one field (this field is the primary key in Table A. Table B doesn't have a primary key). When working inside this query, it gives me the option to delete records. However, when I try, the row disappears from the query but then if I save and close and either re-open table A or the resulting query, that record is back. It doesn't actually delete. If I go to table A directly and delete it, it's gone for good.
How can I make it so that when I delete the record inside the query it actually deletes? And if that's not an option, can I make it so that it doesn't seem like I can delete records inside the query so that people don't make the mistake?
I have two simple tables. I want to delete the records from Table1 that are on Table2. I've created a select query that gives me what I want but when I change to a delete query, I get this message: "Unable to delete from specified tables"
I think my problem has something to do with security but I can't figure out what to change.
I am wondering if there is a quicker way to export a query to excel then have the data in that query removed from the original table. (effectively cutting the data from the table and exporting to excel)
I understand that this can be done by exporting the query to excel then running the same query as a delete query to remove the data but I just wondered if this is the most efficient way.
I have experience of VB in excel but currently only use the basic macro builder in Access though if Access VB is more efficient I can easily learn.
All I am trying to do is insert to have a form with a "Delete Record" button on it. The problem is I don't want anyone to be able to delete a record, I would like someone to have to insert a password to confirm the delete.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a "Marking" function in my database. The function is so that I can mark certain records, then print reports for only those records. When the database is opened I have set it up to run a Query. The query is a Update Query and it unmark all marked records.
However, when the query runs 2 Microsoft Access message box pop up.
the first says "You are about to run an update query that will modify data in your table."
the second one says "You are about to Update # row(s)."
Does anybody know of a way to automatically have yes be chosen on both message boxes so there are no pop ups?
Hello, I used a commond button to run a query in a form. This is an append query that appends the new setups in the form to a table. However, every time I click the button, a message come out: You are about to run an append query that will modify data in your table.
Since this is a form application, I do not want this message come out when I click the button. Can anyone tell me how could I stop this message come out when I click the button.
Thank you.
I have a query, TonerAudit, that audits toner inventory based on the [number of cartridges in inventory] - [cartridges installed in labs]. Data is grouped by the cartridge reorder number.
When the db opens I would like the switchboard form to run an On Open event that evaluates if [TonerAudit].[Expr1] < 2 and if so return a message box saying that toner needs to be reordered.I tried doing this using a macro but I ran into the problem that my if/then procedure will not access individual columns in TonerAudit.
Can anyone help?
i have set up the delete query:
DELETE dbo_MP_Audit.*, dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER.SIN_CANCELLED_YNF
FROM dbo_MP_Audit INNER JOIN dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER ON (dbo_MP_Audit.Usr = dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER.USR_CODE) AND (dbo_MP_Audit.Sin_DocNum = dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER.SIN_NUMBER) AND (dbo_MP_Audit.company = dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER.CMP_CODE)
WHERE (((dbo_CAD_SINV_HEADER.SIN_CANCELLED_YNF)=1));
but receiving error message: "could not delete from specified tables".
I have a table that has records listed more than one time. Some of these multiple records have in the score field a zero for the score. I would like to remove all records that are in the table more than once that have a zero for the score in the score field. Any help is greatly appreciated!

i have set up a delete query to delete items ticked on a query. the form related to the query only shows the items with a "False" value in the criteria. anything set as "true" ( ticked ) is reserved for deleting. the delete query looks at the query and selects all items set to true. it works ok but i dont know how to get this work automatically without going trough the access prompts of deleting.
can this be done with code behind a button whereas if clicked, it runs the query and deletes all of the true items?
thanks,

I have created a query that append all the records to another table3 that are older than two years. But at the same time delete from the original table1.
If i was doing it from a form i would
DoCmd.OpenQuery "MoveQuery"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
However it will be moving several records at a time any ideas?
Secondly Table1 has a 1toMany Relationship with the table2, how can i move the records from table2 to table 4 at the same time. Will the data keep its relationship?
Please help.
Many THanks
Quick question:
How can I automatically bypass the messages "You are about to run a delete query that will modify data in your table."? I don't want an end user to see that message, I just want the delete query to run. Is there a way to get rid of that message without supressing all the messages in the entire database?
Dim db As DAO.Database
Set db = currentdb
db.execute delete master.* FROM master WHERE workitem=" " and corpid=" "
Please tell me how should i write this code( whcih should execute when a form is loaded)... i want to delete all records where workitem is blank and corpid is blank.
I need help!
I'm trying to delete records from Table1 where the field "Name" is equal to the field "Name" in Table2. Please see below what I tried and is not working, any ideas?
DELETE table1.*
FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2 ON table1.Name = table2.Name;
Thanks! :confused:
Hi,
I'm trying to delete some records out of a table. I have a query that acts as a filter and is linked to two fields of the table that I want to delete from. I have put the * field from the table in the query and set the "Unique Values" property to "Yes". Access tells me "You cannot delete from the specified table".
The filter query is not an aggregate one, and if I remove it and simply have the table I want to delete from (i.e. delete all records) it will let me. I have done this loads of times before but this time it won't budge.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Tom
I have two tables..... one table is my "master" table, and the other table is a table of all of the records I want to delete from the "master" table.
I tried setting up a query where I match up the records and then running the query to delete records, but it did not work.
Does anyone out there possibly have a query they could toss my way that uses one table to delete from another table?
Thank you so much!!!!

Hi all
I've created a delete query and I wanted to run it with the RunSQL command.
Here is the code:
Private Sub btnDelete_Click()
RoundName.SetFocus
Dim strRoundName As String
strRoundName = Me.RoundName.Text
Dim SQL As String
SQL = "DELETE Rounds.RoundName" & _
"FROM Rounds" & _
"WHERE Rounds.RoundName ='strRoundName'"
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL
End Sub
When I click the delete button, it comes up with this error:
Run-time error '3075':
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression
'Rounds.RoundNameFROM RoundsWHERE Rounds.RoundName='strRoundName".
I'm not sure where the missing syntax is for this query, could anyone help please.
Thanks

I cannot seem to get a delete query working.
I have two tables.
tbl_Job_Master w/ Job_No, and other fields
tbl_Job_Desc w/Job_No, Status and other fields
The Select query seems to work fine
I have tried.
Right Join, Left Join, Inner Join
All with no luck. If I go to datasheet view I see records returned but if I try to run it 'Could not delete from specified tables'.
DELETE tbl_Job_Master.*,
tbl_Job_Desc.Status
FROM tbl_Job_Master RIGHT JOIN tbl_Job_Desc
ON tbl_Job_Master.Job_No = tbl_Job_Desc.Job_No
WHERE (((tbl_Job_Desc.Status)=0));
I could realy use help on this. If anyone has any idea I would appreciate it.
I have now have another problem doing the same thing. I made a nested query like you said below, then I wanted to delete those records - so I changed it to a delete query. when I tried to run it, it says "Specify the table containing the records you want to delete". I tried playing with it, but I can't seem to get it right.
Basically, I have a table and a sub-table, and I want to delete all records from BOTH tables where data matches a certain criteria in the sub-table. Specifically, I have a table of patients, and a sub-table of their test results. If any of the test results are positive, I want to delete that patient and all of his/her test results.
Hi guys,
The following query
DELETE DD5592.*
FROM DD5592, [module]
WHERE DD5592.Sortcode=module.BASortCode;
Results in a message: Cannot delete from the specified tables.
Any ideas??
is there any way that i can delete records from two different tables using the same delete query as i have them linked in the relationships using Member ID and if i try to delete from one of the tables then and error message appears stating that key violation has occurred.
Thanks
I have two tables. The first table EES has the list of employees that I need and their information. The second table EPAY has even more employees and each employee may have duplicate rows.
I am wanting to delete any employee on EPAY that does not exist on EES.
I tried creating a delete table with the join from EPAY to EES, where a field on EES is null and then added the table fields from EPAY to be deleted. When I "view", it is showing all the rows that should be deleted, however, when I run, it is giving me the error that it "could not delete from specified tables".
Is there a way to do this? I'm not that familiar with delete queries, even though this seems to 'make sense' to me.:confused:
I have exact duplicate records in my table. I would like to remove one of the records so there are no more duplicates but the original record remains. What is the best way to get these quickly removed? thanks for any help!
