delete last 10 rows in sql server

Delete the top 10 rows from a table using SQL Server

The CTE most efficient ways to delete rows from table as per your need.

Example 1,

;WITH CTE AS
(
   SELECT TOP 10*
     FROM UserDetail
)
DELETE FROM CTE


If you want to delete specific subset of rows instead of arbitrary subset, you should explicitly specify order to sub-query:

Example 2,

DELETE FROM UserDetail
WHERE UserID IN
(
  SELECT TOP 10
      UserID
  FROM [UserDetail]
  WHERE UserID =10
  ORDER BY UserID DESC
)
