Deleting Records
Aug 4, 2005I have two tables (same data but slightly different attribute structure) with a one-to-one relationship (the join field is "ID"). There are 69 matching records in these tables. How can I delete these matching records from table A, while leaving them alone in table B?
I'm confused because I brought both tables into a select query, created a join from ID to ID (within in the query's design view), and then added all fields from table A to the query. I then ran the select query and saw the 69 records from table A in the query's data view that I wanted to delete, highlighted all records and clicked delete. However, this action deleted the 69 matching records from TABLE B, not Table A!!! How is this possible? What should I do instead? Thanks.
Deleting Records
Nov 11, 2005A strange request but I hope someone can help with this one
I have a table (tbl_Econ) where I have to delete a specified number of records from a table. It does not matter which records as long as I delete the exact number
e.g On a form text box I enter the number or records to be deleted (e.g.6000).
The table (tbl_Econ) has 8000 records, so I have to delete 6000 records. I need to be able to do this automatically :eek:

Deleting Records
Jan 25, 2008Hi,
how would i go about deleting a set of records? i can get a list of records together in a query taken from 4 tables and would need to, if necessary, delete a single line. not all information needs to be deleted from all 4 tables though? the info to be deleted would only be deleted from 1 or 2 tables being the last 2 in the relationship.
i guessed it might be an append query but im not too familiar with them.
any chance of a possible suggestion?
many thanks,
NS
Deleting Certain Records Using SQL
Dec 14, 2006Hi there, i have a master reset to delete all the data in the database. Although, as there is a username and password entry to get into the admin module, i wish for one entry in the table participantTable to not get deleted (to save one password/username so its possible to log into the admin module after the reset). The code below will delete everything, how can i change it so it keeps the first record in the table, and then deletes all the other records after.
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE * from participantTable"
Thanks in advance

Deleting Records And A One To One Relationship.
Mar 19, 2007Hello all,
I have 3 tables:
1. customer
2. DVD collection
3. Borrow
The aim of this system is to create a home borrowing system.
The customer table has a one to many relationship with the borrow table, while the dvd collection has a one to one with borrow. I can create a new book with no problem, and even view these on a form. Here my proble arises.
I ahve another form to return a DVD. I view the records from the borrow table, and once found what i want there is a button which deletes the record from the borrow table. Sadly, when i press this button, not only does it delete the record in the borrow table, but it will also delete the record from the DVD collection table.
I have tried everything i can think of, and i don't want to change to change the design as i have found this mnethod very easy to generate reports and the like. Any help??
Thanks
EDIT: the button i used was from the wizard that comes up when you create a button.

Db Deleting Records From A Table
May 18, 2005Hello.
I am using a large database, which usually works fine, and is set to compact on close.
Occasionally it has been losing a lot of data in the main table, probably when it compacts, down to a round number of records. This time it left me with 10,000 records exactly. (It has been different round numbers before)
Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this?
Thanks.

Feb 2, 2005I have a simple form with a subform on it (see enclosed Access 2000 Database). I'm trying to add/change/delete records from table: Component Name. Adding and changing records is not a problem but deleting is. It only deletes the value of the field "Interative Component Name" and not the entire record. I have my joins defined properly on the tables. What am I missing? I wish this Access stuff was easier to learn. Any help/clues would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Deleting Records In A Subform
Nov 2, 2005I have a "display only" subform that is updated by a popup form. If I add or amend an entry the details of the changes are displayed immediately in the display window by requerying the form "afterupdate". However, I have a delete button on my popup form which will delete a record but replaces it with the word #deleted in each of its fields. The #delete will only disappear once I have moved to another record which I don't want to do.
Can any one tell me why the amend/insert update works well but the delete behaves in this way.
How can I set up the delete function to function and remove the #deleted message without moving to another record. I have tried adding a save button but this doesn't fix it.
Thankyou
Look Up Form, But No Deleting Of Records?
Mar 23, 2006Hi There,
I have a form with a search field for an unique field, that looks up records in the table that belong to that unique field. See Code:
Private Sub cboLastName1_AfterUpdate()
On Error Resume Next
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
cboLastName1.SetFocus
If cboLastName1.Value > 0 Then
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tbl24HRPolicies WHERE AutoNumber = " & cboLastName1.Value
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
If Not rs.BOF Then
Me.ID = rs("AutoNumber")
Me.Prefix = rs("PolicyNumber")
Me.FirstName = rs("DateReceived")
Me.MiddleName = rs("Comments")
Me.LastName = rs("ClientsName")
Me.Suffix = rs("ShopID")
Me.NickName = rs("Nickname")
Me.Title = rs("ActivePolicy")
End If
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
End If
The fields, that take content based on that search field, are unbound.
I've added the delete button, but it's not working, because they are unbound. Is there no way to delete records with this form??

Oct 4, 2006I'm trying to delete just ONLY the records inside of the column, Not the whole ROW. But I just don't get it. This is what I used.

Everytime when I execute that script, it's deleting the whole row. I just want to delete records inside of the QTY column, not the ROW.
