access_asp thread: Automatic Deletion of Expired Records


Message #1 by "Matthew Wiens" <design@e...> on Tue, 21 Aug 2001 15:35:54
I need my Access database to be able to delete records when the date in my 

ExpiryDate field comes up. Could someone please help me with this, it is 

quite urgent, any help would be greatly appreciated.



Thank you.

After your recordset is created, use the .Find method for your recordset to

match the record in the dbase with your ExpiryDate.  Then use the .Delete

method to delete the record. DO you want to delete all records matching the

ExpiryDate?  IF so, the procedure will have to be looped to step through

each record or filtered to only look at the matching records.
