Sometimes we may wish to use a query to remove records from a table. To do so, we can use the DELETE FROM command. The syntax for this is
DELETE FROM "table_name"
WHERE {condition}
It is easiest to use an example. Say we currently have a table as below:
Table Store_Information
| store_name | Sales | Date |
| Los Angeles | $1500 | Jan-05-1999 |
| San Diego | $250 | Jan-07-1999 |
| Los Angeles | $300 | Jan-08-1999 |
| Boston | $700 | Jan-08-1999 |
and we decide not to keep any information on Los Angeles in this table. To accomplish this, we type the following SQL:
DELETE FROM Store_Information
WHERE store_name = "Los Angeles"
Now the content of table would look like,
Table Store_Information
| store_name | Sales | Date |
| San Diego | $250 | Jan-07-1999 |
| Boston | $700 | Jan-08-1999 |
