Question

This doesnt seem to work:

 /// delete emails first
         $this->db->where('DateSent', 'DateSent!=NULL');
        $this->db->delete('Emails');

I guess I need to use a loop. Not sure how to go about doing this. Can anyone help?

Cheers

If you were to look in the very useful CodeIgniter userguide you’ll see the operator should be included as part of the first parameter not second. This should solve it:

$this->db->where('DateSent !=', 'NULL');
$this->db->delete('Emails');
