    Default Naming objects - but then how to delete them from the list

    Where can I go to delete names I made up but don't want to use them or names that appear in the list that I have no idea how they got there?

    I tried looking it up and other than "add" and then remove, it's still in the list.

    Anyone?

    Do you mean from the Luggage Label (Utilities > Names) section?

    If so, select the object, then, Utilities > Names, click on the name in the Names Applied box and click the Remove button.

    Yes, that's where I am talking about. When I go into that there is nothing in the "names applied" area and to get the name I have to use the "apply name" and add, but and then remove, but the name is still in the drop down area apply name. How do I permanently remove names in the area where the drop down apply name is?

    Excellent question, to which I have no idea as to an answer.

    I don't really think it matters as long as you've removed the name from the 'Applied' area.

    It probably doesn't matter, but I didn't like the name I used and now I can't take it out...just urks me to "see" the other name there.
    It's gotta be in some file...but we should be able to delete it!

    @Acorn, might know??

    Sue, Premium does not have the Name gallery. In XDPX & XPro+, you can delete a Name entirely.

    You could use it to keep your weekly shopping list, it really affects nothing other than the drop-down list.

    Yep, Acorn, I have the Premium. I didn't even know "Name Gallery" existed.

    Haha about using it for a shopping list! My quirky-ness says if you don't use it, delete it!
