Re: deleting

Hi Margaret,

 1. If you would rather not receive mail except for topics that you have re=
quested help for, you might find the OpenOffice Community Forums more to yo=
ur liking: <http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/>.

 2. About deleting files.

 a. There is no direct way to delete already-saved files from the OpenOffic=
e "File" menu.

 b. If you know where the file is stored, you can use your operating system=
 to do it.=20=20

 c. If you are on Windows there are a couple of ways to accomplish this wit=
h the "File" menu too.

    (i) Use the File | Open ... dialog to navigate to folders
        and right click on the file you want to delete.
        Use the context menu to delete the selected file.
        Then cancel the Open operation.

   (ii) If you are not certain where a file is stored but you
        know of a recent file that is in the same place,=20
        use the File | Recent Documents ... dialog to open
        a file from the same location that you *don't* want
        to delete.  Then select File } Save As ... and delete
        the same way as in (i).  Then cancel the Save As ...
        operation.=20

Your mileage will vary if you are running on a different operating system. =
 Others here can help with that if you say what system you are running.
