I have a table “groupdentlink” where I want to delete all the rows that weren’t checked in a form.

In essence I want to perform a query like:

DELETE * FROM groupdentlink
WHERE group_id = 'a'
AND dentist_id IS NOT IN ARRAY 'b'

I think I could set a variable with a foreach loop and then keep adding the array values to it so I end up with:

DELETE * FROM groupdentlink
WHERE group_id = 'a'
AND dentist_id != 'D1'
AND dentist_id != 'D5'
AND dentist_id != 'D8'

…and so on.

But is this really the right/best way to do this?

Thanks in advance!
