Handling data for deleting multiple rows
I have a database 0f 15000 for an email newsletter.
I have a list of addresses/entries I would like to delete. There are about 1500 dodgey email adesses that need deletion. I can get these addresses as an excel spreadsheet, tab or column seperated list. The query I tried is delete from tblnewsmember where newsmember_email in ('address1','address2', 'address3') This works but does anyone know how I can get the data in this ('address1','address2', 'address3') format for thousands of email adddresses?!?! Any ideas most appreciated! merry xmas! jax
