Removing Records from a Database

I need to be able to cycle through all of the fields in a database while cycling through the values in a listbox to see if records exist in the database with a certain field, "identifier", that maches the value of the listbox in that cycle...


understand?


This is what i have so far... but it doesn't even look as if it even got started... the records are still in the dbase...

VB Code:

For i = 0 To lstImport.ListCount
    For j = 1 To RS.RecordCount
        If RS.Fields("identifier").Value = lstImport.List(i) Then
            RS.Delete
            RS.Update
        End If
        RS.MoveNext
    Next j
Next i

i know that the looping code is good, i believe my problem is in the location of the Delete, Update, and MoveNext commands...

thank you

I think you should build a sql statement and then execute that.
Makes it cleaner and leaves the job to the db.

VB Code:

Dim SQL As String
Dim db As Database
Set db = opendatabase("yadidasdifoafj some db.mdb")
For i = 0 To lstImport.ListCount
    SQL = "DELETE * FROM TableNameHere WHERE FieldNameHere='" & lstImport.List(i) & "'"
    db.Execute
Next i
