Deleting a row from temp table

I have two grids and on a button click items move from grid 1 to grid 2. Another button removes selected items from grid 2.

The row is deleted from the screen by using: 

THIS-OBJECT:ultraGrid2:ActiveRow:Delete().

However then this is saved and repoened this row still appears as it was not been removed from the temp table. The temp-table is called selectedFormula. I've tried: 

DELETE FROM selectedFormula WHERE ultraGrid2 = ultraGrid2:ActiveRow.

However i get the error message "Unable to understand after "ultraGrid2 = ultraGrid2".". Does anyone one have any ideas how to remove a item from a temp-table in Progress using ABL?

Any help will be appreciated.

You will need to get the unique key from the active row in the UltraGrid2. Using that key, you find the record in the temp-table and you delete it like this.

FIND selectedFormula 
    WHERE selectedFormula.[key field] = [key from UltraGrid2]
    NO-ERROR.
IF AVAIL selectedFormula THEN
  DELETE selectedFormula.

Note: Key can be many fields, depends on your table temp-table definition and data.
