You may find a concensus here of people who do not delete records but put a flag on them so they're hidden from users. You could then simply track who deleted a record and when (unless space is an issue and you really want the records gone).

I am trying to find a means of auditing the deletion of records from a table (write a record in another table with the appropriate details of who, when, and key fields of the record being deleted). My attempt at using the BeforeDelConfirm event fails as the values of the form's fields of this bound form are already null (deleted). I was able to find some discussion of auditing changes to records in the archive, but am not able to find anything on deleted records. Anyone with some experience or suggestions on obtaining the values of a record once the user has selected the record and pressed Del, or selected Record Delete? Thank you in advance.
