Is it possible to delete from multiple tables in the same SQL statement?

Question

It\'s possible to delete using join statements to qualify the set to be deleted, such as the following:

DELETE J
FROM Users U
inner join LinkingTable J on U.         


        

Answer 1

The way you say is Possible in MY SQL but not for SQL SERVER

You can use of the "deleted" pseudo table for deleting the values from Two Tables at a time like,

 begin transaction;

 declare @deletedIds table ( samcol1 varchar(25) );

 delete #temp1
 output deleted.samcol1 into @deletedIds
 from #temp1 t1
 join #temp2 t2
 on t2.samcol1 = t1.samcol1

 delete #temp2
 from #temp2 t2
 join @deletedIds d
 on d.samcol1 = t2.samcol1;

 commit transaction;
