why don’t you have the user delete the document from the view itself…or have a flag in the document so that the user marks it for deletion and then have an agent run so that when the flag is set it deletes the document…

You cannot delete an open or current document.

What you should do is to mark the document as deleted, and show it in a view (Recycle).Then, the users should delete that doc from the view.

With this you provide the users with an utility of recovering deleted docs.

Unfortunalatly I need to if possible follow the requiremets exactly.

Is there no way to:

Write an agent that deletes the ‘marked for deletion’ documents so that after the user presses ‘delete’ and goes back to the view the document no longer exists.

Adding a flag is not an option since these are virtual documents and I can’t add any fields to the back end data.
