Select multiple opjects (not all) to delete

[Sean Bartleet]

Hi,

I am trying to select/delete multiple objects without having to click on
each one.

I can go to Edit / Go To / Special / Objects - hold down the CTRL key and
click on the objects I want to leave and then hit the Delete button. The
problem with this is that there are still 50 objects that I want to leave
and this will take a while to unselect the ones I want left.

I could hold down the shift key as you click on the items that I wish to
delete bit there are even more of those.

All the objects that I want to keep are in column A, the rest are in other
columns.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Sean

You can use the Select Objects tool on the Drawing toolbar.
Use it to draw a rectangle around multiple objects that you want to delete.
Once they're selected, press the delete key.

If the objects are from the Control toolbox, switch to Design mode so
you can select them.
