3.5. Deleting Rows from Data Entry Pages

Follow these steps to select and delete a single row, or a contiguous series of two or more rows, from any of the Power and Thermal Calculator (PTC) data entry pages.
  1. To select a row to delete, click on the row number at the left side of the table row. The entire row becomes highlighted. (If you want to delete multiple contiguous rows, hold down the Ctrl key while you select additional rows.)
  2. To delete the selected row (or rows), right-click and select Delete from the context menu, or press the Delete key on the keyboard.

  3. The system displays a dialog box warning that the deletion cannot be undone, and asking you to confirm that you want to proceed with the deletion. Click OK to delete the selected rows, or click Cancel to abandon the operation.
