How to delete term using powershell?

Hello
I want to delete a particular term from termstore. I dont have termset name. Without termset name how can I delete term using powershell?
Avi

If you don't know the termset net it makes it tricky.
In theory if you know the name of the term you could look through all termsets to find it. The catch of course is to ensure there is only one instance of the term otherwise you may delete terms you need.
Which version of SharePoint?

    Trent,
    Thanks for you suggestions. .. Let me explain my problem a little better ...
    I have a report that lists fields associated with a report ... I have a delete icon which deletes a row and removes it from the underlying table ... however, I am trying to implement a Before header process which runs a pl/sql process that checks if the selected field is the last field in the report ... if so, I want a confirmation dialog to pop up ... if they click cancel .. then the deletion is aborted, else the field is deleted (which triggers other status changes).
    Based on this logic if there is a way to implement this based on your suggestion I would appreciate it ...
    Here is the process I was trying to use .... but the I have a few issues with this approach
    declare
    -- cursor to check if this is the last field
    cursor fld_cnt is
    select count(*) from prm_ptnr_rpt_fields
    where report_uid = :P22_REPORT_UID;
    num_flds number;
    msg varchar2(300);
    begin
    open fld_cnt;
    fetch fld_cnt into num_flds;
    If num_flds > 1 then
    delete from prm_ptnr_rpt_fields
    where report_uid = :P22_REPORT_UID
    and field_user_key = :P9_DELETED_FLD;
    commit;
    :P9_DELETED_FLD := NULL;
    msg := :P9_FIELD_NAME || ' Field Excluded From Report' ;
    apex_application.g_print_success_message := msg;
    else
    htp.p('<script type="text/javascript">');
    htp.p('
    var r=confirm("This is the last field included in this report .. \n Deleting it will Inactivate the report and remove it from schedule (if scheduled) ...\n Do you want to proceed?");
    if (r==true)
    {      delete from prm_ptnr_rpt_fields 
    where report_uid = :P22_REPORT_UID
    and field_user_key = :P9_DELETED_FLD;
    :P9_DELETED_FLD := NULL;
    commit;
    msg := :P9_FIELD_NAME || ' Field Excluded From Report' ;
    update prm_ptnr_rpts
    set report_status = 'INCOMPLETE',
    active_report = 'N'
    where report_uid = :P22_REPORT_UID;
    msg := msg || ' and Report Status changed to INCOMPLETE';
    apex_application.g_print_success_message := msg;
    htp.p('}else {
    alert("Delete Action Aborted");
    htp.p('</script>');
    End if;
    Close fld_cnt;
    end;
    a) Even if I click cancel ... the field still gets deleted ...
    b) :P9_DELETED_FLD is the id for the selected field ... I am setting it on the link attributes which places it on the URL ... I would rather user javascript (but not exactly sure how).
    Thanks,
    Gerald

  • How to delete element using XmlCursor

    Hi
    I am using XMLBeans for bidirectional binding (XML to Java and after user updates
    back to XML).
    I do not want to use a direct setter (e.g. doc.setAccount (account)) because I
    am developing a framework and I need to provide an API to the callers. It would
    have helped if the setters accepted XmlObject, then I could use polymorphism.
    But that is a different topic.
    Hence, I have tried to use cursors. I have my cursor advance to an element. I
    do not find a method in the Javadoc to delete the element (so that I can replace
    it with the updated XML). I tried the method remove, but got an error that read
    "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't remove this". Does not tell why (reminded
    me of MC Hammer).
    Can someone tell me what method I can use to delete or update the element being
    pointed by the cursor ?
    Thus if Account is a complex Type, I would like to update just the Account element
    (and all the elements it contains). The rest of the doc should remain the same.
    Thanks

    Remove is the correct function to call on the cursor. If the current token is
    a start token, then the remove should work. You will get such a message if the
    current token is s startdoc, enddoc or end.

    Hi  ,
    The onclick event provides you with a standard paramater "CONTEXT_ELEMENT" which has the element from which the event is triggered.
    so you can declare this in the handler(if it is not there) and use it as follows.
    CONTEXT_ELEMENT  TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT  an importing paramater.
    DATA:
    NODE_MODULE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE,
    ELEM_MODULE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT,
    STRU_MODULE TYPE IF_V_MODULE=>ELEMENT_MODULE .
    data itab TYPE TABLE OF zac_modules.
    CONTEXT_ELEMENT->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES(
    IMPORTING
    STATIC_ATTRIBUTES = STRU_MODULE ). "Using the context_element paramater to get the static attributes.
    NODE_MODULE->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE(
    IMPORTING
    TABLE = itab )   "getting all the data.
    DELETE itab WHERE zmodule_id = STRU_MODULE-zmodule_id. "deleting the particular row from the table and binding it.

  • Delete ccmcache used space

    Hi All
    I have a question regarding client cache removal using a powershell script calling a com object
    My C drive contains 18 GB free space
    Total CCM Cache in c:\windows\ccmcache size is 10240
    Free Space = 8713  and used space = 1527
    I used the following powershell script to remove used space by using DeleteCacheElement function
    Though all folders were removed in cache but I still see used space even after using the script
    May I know the reason and how to delete the used space
    $UIResourceMgr = New-Object -ComObject UIResource.UIResourceMgr
    $Cache = $UIResourceMgr.GetCacheInfo()
    $CacheElements = $Cache.GetCacheElements()
