Is there an easy way to delete all the records in a table? I don't want to delete the table, just the records.

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Yes, run this code:
Code:
DELETE * FROM [Table_Name];
You can run this from a "RunSQL" Macro command if you like. You can also add another action in to suppress the warning message (SetWarnings).
