How can you delete a record from a table in Access?

To delete a record from a table in Access, selecting it in Datasheet View and pressing the Delete key is the correct method. This action allows users to straightforwardly remove a specific row or record from the table that is currently being displayed.

When in Datasheet View, each row represents a record, and you can easily select the record you wish to remove. Pressing the Delete key will prompt a confirmation message to ensure that you want to permanently delete that record, highlighting the importance of user confirmation before making changes.

This method is efficient and intuitive, as it does not require switching to different views or tools within Access, which can complicate the process. Other methods, such as using Design View or functions like Find and Replace, do not provide a direct means of deleting records from a table in the way Datasheet View does.
