Example

This Siebel VB example illustrates how to delete accounts with a status of Inactive.

Sub DeleteInactiveAccounts()
   Dim objBO as BusObject
   Dim objBC as BusComp

   Set objBO = TheApplication.GetBusObject("Account")
   Set objBC = objBO.GetBusComp("Account")
   With objBC
      .ClearToQuery
      .SetSearchSpec "Status", "Inactive"
      .ExecuteQuery ForwardBackward
      Do While .FirstRecord
         .DeleteRecord
      Loop
   End With
   Set objBC = Nothing
   Set objBO = Nothing
End Sub

NOTE:  The cursor is moved to the next record after DeleteRecord is executed. Therefore, it is not necessary to execute NextRecord after DeleteRecord. Do not use NextRecord after DeleteRecord in a loop because this causes the deletion of the last record in the loop to be skipped. If you use DeleteRecord on the last record, the cursor points to nothing.
