This is kind of a problem, in order to delete documents using terms you need to have a keyword field which contain a unique value, otherwise you might ending deleting more then you want.

I saw Terms being used to ID the document to delete. But I am not clear what value to put in the Term, as I do not know how Terms relate to Fields). Many thanks, Mike. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
