We do it with a truncate table SQL command (since we want to delete everything)
Simply find your schema ID for the form in question and Truncate the T, H, and 
B tables for that ID

Subject: Cleaning up forms before migration

**
We have some backend forms with large amounts of data that we don't care about 
and would like to delete before doing a data migration.

For example FB:History has over 160 million records. What is the best way to go 
about deleting data out of the forms that have gotten away from us.

I know we should have set up escalations or archiving to prevent this.

Obviously deleting them through search and delete is out of the question.  If I 
set up an escalation to do it I think it would kill performance or take 
forever. How do you guys go about it.  Risky SQL?

Thanks,

Ken Cecil
