I am unclear why that statement (you can't delete an item) is given. I do so all the time. My issue at the moment, is that the software is saying to create the PN again with the same name, I need to delete it out of Pending deletion status. How do you accomplish that (especially since it is telling me that is what I need to do)--just found out, you have to close all occurances of the company file, and the item will complete deleting
