This is a great illustration of why it's nice to post these little hacks. I thought everybody knew about Shift+Del, but I was wrong. Unless you're doing really massive deletes, another option is to right-click Recycle Bin and open Properties. Uncheck (untick) "Display delete confirmation dialog". Then things you delete with the plain Del key or Delete menu selection will be deleted without a confirmation prompt, but to the Recycle Bin so if you make an oops you can easily recover. -- Stan Brown, Tehachapi, California, USA https://BrownMath.com/ Shikata ga nai...
