Yes, which is what I thought you wanted. So, you have something like: Slideshow <->> SlideshowToImages <<-> Image
Correct? If so, you can essentially do the same thing: dataContext.deleteObjects(slideshow.getSlideshowToImages()); Just make sure you don't cascade delete your images from the many-to-many join. /dev/mrg -----Original Message----- From: Gary Jarrel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2006 11:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: My Laziness is Getting the Better of Me But wouldn't the call to dataContext.deleteObjects(slideshow.getImages()); actually delete the image records from the image table (upon commit). All I'm trying to do is clear the relationship table, because any given image form part of any number of slideshows. Hence I don't want to delete the actual images just the link (record in join table) between Slideshow & Image - garyj PS.
