使用单个Delete Statement删除多个表

Question

我有3个表（出于某种原因，我需要将这些表分成3个表，我只是使用LEFT JOIN加入它们）

表1

refno
location

表2

refno
description

表3

refno
imagepath

要删除，我需要发出3个DELETE语句

DELETE FROM table1 WHERE refno = 'variablehere'
DELETE FROM table2 WHERE refno = 'variablehere'
DELETE FROM table3 WHERE refno = 'variablehere'

有没有办法使用单个DELETE语句从3个表中删除，我的意思是我可以在DELETE语句中使用类似LEFT JOIN的东西吗？

Answer 1

SQL Fiddle显示以下查询的示例：

DELETE a.*, b.*, c.*
FROM table1 AS a, table2 AS b, table3 AS c
WHERE a.refno  = b.refno 
AND b.refno  = c.refno 
AND a.refno  = 'variablehere'
