Usage

This call permanently deletes the primary or auxiliary items you specify. Any items referring to these items will be reduced or set to (None). All items in the list are processed.

Failures do not result in a return before all items have been processed.

Faults

Invalid database pointer.
The item ID is not valid.
The user lacks sufficient permission.
The delete transition fails to execute.
