# SQL-041: clsImageFileExternalViewUpdate

This statement deletes from `IMAGE_FILE_EXT_VIEW_UPDATE` using `IMAGE_FILE_KEY` and `IMAGE_FILE_CODE` in the WHERE clause. However, the live `BeforeDelete` method does not call `AddParm` for these parameters, making this path appear incomplete**. `AfterDelete` verifies exactly one row affected.

## Classification

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| **SQL ID** | SQL-041 |
| **Operation type** | Delete |
| **Execution method** | Inline SQL |
| **Database** | Oracle |
| **Schema** | [unqualified]** |
| **Command type** | Text** |
| **Business object** | `clsImageFileExternalViewUpdate` |
| **Criteria property** | `DeleteSQL` |
| **Lifecycle method** | `BeforeDelete` |

## Parameters

No `AddParm` calls are paired with this statement in the live `BeforeDelete` method; the `:ImageFileKey` and `:ImageFileCode` bind variables are not bound at runtime**.

## Tables

| Table | Access | Columns used |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [IMAGE_FILE_EXT_VIEW_UPDATE](../database-tables.md#image_file_ext_view_update) | DELETE | IMAGE_FILE_KEY, IMAGE_FILE_CODE |

## Sample SQL

```sql
-- Note: BeforeDelete does not bind :ImageFileKey or :ImageFileCode**
Delete from IMAGE_FILE_EXT_VIEW_UPDATE
where IMAGE_FILE_KEY = :ImageFileKey
  and IMAGE_FILE_CODE = :ImageFileCode
```
