Subject: Deleting a archive file

Hello,

 Does anyone know how you can delete a specific archive files by say
"object_id"?

 Say you have two archives with the description of
 "ARCHIVE1" and "ARCHIVE2"

 You can run a select

 select object_id from archives where description='ARCHIVE1'

 But the delete archive is filespec specific, and I have not found a simple
solution.

Thanks for any help,
Bart
