Deleting Lists

Try this query. It is not pretty but gets the trick done. What it does is looks for any keyword with the text "list_no" and try to join to that. It is looking for lists be used by other lists or extractions.

I'm hoping someone has a trick to do this. I have a lot of lists that were saved from extractions that I was working on for mailing/telefunding campaigns, that I have since then decided not to use, but I am unable to delete them.

I get the error message that this list is in use and cannot be deleted but I have gone through so many of my lists and extractions and do not see any of these lists in use (nor should any of my collegues be using them.)

How can I delete???? I know I could just inactivate them, which I have. But they still show up in list manager and I would like to get rid of them all together because their presence is more confusing than anything else.

Suggestions???
