SQL gurus all,

I have a file that I need to delete records from. The records that should
be deleted are controlled by _selected_ records from a 2nd file. Here is
what I came up with, and I was wondering if there were other and/or better
ways.

delete
from FileA a
where exists
(select b.KeyField01, b.KeyField02
from FileB b
where a.KeyField01 = b.KeyField01
and a.KeyField02 = b.KeyField02
and b.Field03 = 'Some Value from FileB' )


Thanks!

Jim
