Delete Contact vs Delete Lookup

‎03-11-2011 03:12 PM

Hello,

 

Does anyone know what the difference between Delete Contact vs Delete Lookup is? If I have multiple contacts for one company and I hit Delete Contact, then will it only delete the chosen contact?

 

I've tried doing a test run to see the difference and it looks like when I Delete Lookup under one company with multiple contacts, everyone including the company gets deleted. Is this true?

 

Any responses would be helpful. Thanks!

If you do a Lookup of contacts first, you can delete them with Delete Contact.

It doesn't delete the Company record and the Lookup doesn't have to be related to a Company
