To delete a dictated paragraph from an existing document or to delete a dictated paragraph just entered into M/TEXT by the typist, each line of the paragraph must be deleted. Merely deleting the #AAA031 identifier will not delete associated text.

Enter the document edit screen, use the DELETE line command by entering “D” in the line edit margin on the first line to be deleted (including the #AAA031 identifier if all associated text is to be deleted) followed by the number of lines to be deleted (for example, D14 to delete 14 lines) and press ENTER. Or, enter “DD” in the line edit margin on the first line to be deleted and the last line to be deleted and press ENTER.
