Deleting Records

Question

I have a table [user_logs] with the following fields [username], [datetimelog]

Sample Data

==============
user1   2011-06-28 08:49:01
user2   2011-06-28          


        

Answer 1

What about:

DELETE FROM 
    MY_TABLE M -- delete from the table
LEFT JOIN
    MY_TABLE M2 ON M.user = M2.user -- table needs to be joined TO ITSELF
WHERE
    NOT M.LOG_DATE = MAX( M2.LOG_DATE ) -- Anything which isn't MAX goes.

Could that work?
