# Delete Method (ADO Parameters Collection)
Deletes an object from the [Parameters](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/parameters-collection-ado.md) collection.  
  
## Syntax  
  
```  
  
Parameters.Delete Index  
```  
  
#### Parameters  
 *Index*  
 A **String** value that contains the name of the object you want to delete, or the object's ordinal position (index) in the collection.  
  
## Remarks  
 Using the **Delete** method on a collection lets you remove one of the objects in the collection. This method is available only on the **Parameters** collection of a [Command](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/command-object-ado.md) object. You must use the [Parameter](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/parameter-object.md) object's [Name](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/name-property-ado.md) property or its collection index when calling the **Delete** method-an object variable is not a valid argument.  
  
## Applies To  
 [Parameters Collection (ADO)](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/parameters-collection-ado.md)
