Hi

Added Reader to extract from Access db source and then insert into destination SQL db (right hand side) and it worked fine:

FME Wanted to add a writer to delete all db records (on the far left) before the reader. However, unable to connect that writer to the reader. Any advice on how can I execute that Delete Writer before the Reader? Thanks.

You can use FeatureReaders / FeatureWriters for this kind of workflow. If you have no features to initiate the proces, you can put a Creator transformer in front of the FeatureReader.
