All,

I'm trying to figure out the syntax required for
Application-Query-Delete-Entry .... (Server is running ARS 7.5)

Trying to keep an "archive" of emails - we have a requirement to keep 6
months worth in the system (audit trail, proof of sending, etc.), and the
form was actually turning out to be the largest on the system (over 7
million records - I manually deleted the older ones via the user tool, that
is not fun!).

In an active link, just trying a simple
 $PROCESS$ @@:Application-Query-Delete-Entry "AR System Email Messages" '3'
< ($TIMESTAMP$ - (86400 * 75))

The 75 is related to a test system and the data that is on it (would
obviously be changed on live).  The query itself is fine against the email
messages form, it just comes up with a qualification error when run via the
active link.

Any suggestions?  I could try an alternative using Application-Delete-Entry
<form> <record ID> and table walking, but that'll be horrendously
inefficient in comparison to Application-Query-Delete-Entry.

Regards

Dave Barber
