I'm 99% sure you could make a formula URL button that the user could press. Where is it you want to direct them to after the delete. Do you just want to refresh the page that they are on?

    var text Delete = URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_DeleteRecord&rid=" & [Record ID#];

    var text RefreshPage =  URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=doredirect&z=" & Rurl();

     
    $Delete
    & "&rdr=" & URLEncode($RefreshPage)

      Thank you. I have thought of using custom buttons. 

      It would be nice if there was a consistent "return" location for any action. Sometimes, I get the report home page, sometimes I get the app home page.
