Subject: Why does my delete not work :(
Hi all!
I've got this piece of SELECT statement for MySql.
SELECT *
FROM messages
LEFT OUTER JOIN main
ON messages.topicid=main.topicid
WHERE main.topicid is null;
so the select statement works fine. But what I'd like to do is actually
delete those rows instead. but substituting SELECT with DELETE doesn't work
:(
Please help! i'm pulling out my hair........
