Unique Records property in Delete Query

In Microsoft Access, if you create a delete query based on two or more related tables, you must open the Property Sheet and set the Unique Records property to "Yes". If you leave it set to "No", you get the error message "Could not delete from the specified tables".



Now, I know how to make the delete query work (by changing the Unique Records property). What I don't understand is why. Why does that property have to be set to "Yes"? What does that change about the delete query? What problem is caused by leaving it as "No"? If you could explain why setting that process is needed, I would greatly appreciate it.



Thank you.
