What about using FIND in Custom EEPS, Expressions and Control Properties
in all forms for:
DEL ROWS FROM [tablename]
DELETE ROWS FROM [tablename]
DEL FROM [tablename]
DELETE FROM [tablename]
If you R:Style or use consistent coding you might skip some of the above
commands.
And possibly RMD files, maybe even reports?

they all follow each other a second apart, every single one. So a
batch is being deleted at once. Then we won't see anything for
months. This has happened 3 times that we know of during the past year

Karen,
Brainstorming without knowing your application and database: Missing
user and computer name could indicate system user. Access via
ODBC/Oterro, other trigger? The way of deletion may give a hint: are
the deletions contiguous or scattered during the day?

Adrian: I am assuming they were actually deleted. Since the trigger is
"before delete" and operates as it should other than giving me that
null DeletedBy, and I can't find them anywhere in the original table,
I have to think they were deleted. If there was an issue with indexes
or a database problem itself, I would think it would show up on an
Autochk. This database has never had a bad Autochk.

Karen,
Quick question: do you feel that records are/were effectively deleted
or do you have NULL entries even though nothing was deleted?
BR, Adrian

*Betreff:* [RBASE-L] - Delete Trigger mystery?
Why I needed the before-delete trigger: _no one_ should ever be
deleting data from this table. And although they have the full
version of RBase, no one knows how to "get to the R> prompt". There
is a monthend routine that the senior user runs that will delete a
batch of data, but that's all (we remove the trigger before this
monthend routine, then put it back on)
Yet every now and then we find data mysteriously disappeared.
So I created a before-delete trigger. It takes the record to be
deleted and appends it to an archive table. 3 columns in the archive
table will hold the deleted date / time and the user who deleted it.
Works perfectly at my development environment and when I test it at
the place where the database is installed. Records the date, time and
the user.
However, twice now we have found records in that archive table that
had been deleted (hundreds at a time). The records had the deleted
date/time but had *NO *user name.
Here's the code I use in my stored procedure. The DeletedDate and
DeletedTime works fine, it gets updated every time. There is no login
to this app, so I grab the NetUser (used many times in the application
for other things, successfully). The first time that the archive had
no user name, I modified the stored procedure to grab the
ComputerName. But still, nothing.....
SET VAR vText TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vText = (CVAL("NetUser"))
IF vText IS NULL THEN
SET VAR vText = (CVAL("ComputerName"))
ENDIF
UPDATE ClaimsDeleted SET DeletedDate = .#DATE, DeletedTime = .#TIME, +
DeletedBy = .vText WHERE claim = .spClaim
Can anyone think of anything else I can trap that would help me figure
out how/when the records got deleted?
Or does anyone know how records could get deleted when there _actually
is no_ NetUser or ComputerName?
Karen
