Thanks for your input guys. This is what I eventually implemented:
$charts_kpi_index = 0;
$dataKeys = array_keys($this->data
['ChartsKpi']);
foreach($this->data['ChartsKpi'] as
$chartskpi)
{
if ($chartskpi['kpi_id'] == 0)
{
unset($this->data['ChartsKpi']
[$dataKeys[$charts_kpi_index]]);
}
$charts_kpi_index++;
}
$this->Chart->saveAll($this->data);
Thanks again
David
