    Hi,
    Can't I use the joins in the delete statement. If possible, could someone give me the syntax for deleting from table a and table b where a.account_num = b.account_num.

    you can use sub-select in delete clause provided the sub-select returns only one value:

    delete from b
    where account_num = (select a.account_num from a,b
    where a.account_num = b.account_num);
