I have a form that allows the user to upload a document with some basic information, Name, Type, notes, etc. There are also some hidden fields I am sending to the table to Date Added, Created by, etc.

I’ve allowed the ability to delete the item but when I do it doesn’t clear the whole row… just some columns.

How can I get to remove the whole row. There doesn’t seem to be a way to control what the delete button does.

By ‘some columns’ you mean all columns except for the row id, am I correct?

Well, I just tested it out and It seems like it is deleting the whole roll now. Maybe I did something while I was making some updates.

Thanks!

It may take a while to clear the whole row. It might not be as instant as you may have expected.
