but I need to be able to delete from up to 5 different tables, is there a quick and simple way of doing this? can someone post an example?
Just guessing without more detailed information, but are the tables related one-to-many using foreign keys? If so, when defining the foreign key you can set the delete to cascade whenever a "master" row is deleted:
alter table foo add constraint foo_fk foreign key [...] on delete cascade; ...or something like that.
