i have the following code behind a command button on my main_form - am trying to delete records based on SSN from multiple tables - the connect string that i use is also used to get nextval from this same oracle database, so i know that's correct - not sure what i'm doing wrong here...the records are obviously not deleted even though the sql string looks correct -
MsgBox "Warning - this will Delete all related records in the database for " & FIRSTNAME & " " & MINAME & " " & LASTNAME & " " & SSN Dim mydatabase As DAO.Database Dim myquerydef As DAO.QueryDef Dim sqlstr As String Dim sqlssn As String Set mydatabase = CurrentDb() Set myquerydef = mydatabase.CreateQueryDef(memberq) myquerydef.Connect = "ODBC;DSN=xxxxxx.xxxx.xx;UID=xxxxxx;PWD=xxxxxx;SERVER=ADM2" sqlssn = "'" & SSN & "'" & ";" sqlstr = "delete * from MEMBER where ssn=" & sqlssn MsgBox sqlstr myquerydef.SQL = sqlstr myquerydef.Close 'Set myquerydef = mydatabase.CreateQueryDef(giftq) 'sqlstr = "delete from GIFT where ssn=" & sqlssn 'MsgBox "delete from GIFT" 'myquerydef.SQL = sqlstr 'myquerydef.Close 'Set myquerydef = mydatabase.CreateQueryDef(addrq) 'sqlstr = "delete from ADDR where ssn=" & sqlssn 'MsgBox "delete from ADDR" 'myquerydef.SQL = sqlstr 'myquerydef.Close ------------------------ Yahoo!
