Better practice would be to perform a logical delete rather than a physical.
Add the following columns to the main table.... bDeleted (bit), dDeletedBy
(varchar/ID as you see fit), dDateDeleted (datetime) column to the table and
perform the deletes that way.  What purpose would adding and writing another
table to track deletes etc when you can do it all in one.

Subject: [CF-Dev] CFTRANSACTION and DELETEs

>- see footer for list info -<
I have a block of code that needs to delete a record from a table and
insert an action audit trail of the deletion in to a different table.

Something like:

Delete from X where ID = 1

Insert into Y Values 1, deleted

Is this a good place to use CFTRANSACTION around the whole block of two
queries?

As I understand - the cftransaction will not perform the second query
if the first is not successful. If the first query didn't find any
matching records to delete (i.e. not on the table), would this count
as 'not successful' and therefore skip the bottom query?

Hope that's clear!?
