I think it's because you can't delete a blank record.

You might want to just trap this error.

Igor,

Are you running this code in the Click event of a button? If so, is there
any other code in that event? Where is the button located, is it on the form
you are trying to delete the record from?

In that case, unless there is some other code that is interfering, I don't
know. I even checked to see what would happen if you were at a new, unsaved
record. But the code and toolbar button both deleted the new, unsaved
record. No error was generated.

Just to verify, the button is on the SAME form, not a subform or parent form
of the form that has the record you're trying to delete.
