This is so basic, I'm reluctant to ask how to solve this.

I'm running Windows XP Home Edition. I've created a few spread sheets and Word Processing documents.

I want to delete about 6 of these files, but cannot figure out how to do it. I can't find anything under edit to help me accomplish the removal of these files. I can "select all", but the "delete" choice is constantly grayed out, no matter what I try.

Crayon directions accepted. :-)

Thanks
