Doug, We had this problem with a few methods. Went on for years. We could edit the content, but not delete them (tried every single 4D user including designer). At some point after multiple 4D version upgrades and repairs we were able to remove them. Not sure what the exact fix was. I just made sure that they were empty so that no matter what they couldn't get called and do something.

They're from a 4D 2004 converted Foundation structure. Most of those methods will delete just fine, but I've found four, so far, that will not go away. :-/ Doug On Wed, May 17, 2017 at 9:50 AM, Kirk Brooks via 4D_Tech < 4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > Ah - sometimes the Explorer doesn't completely set itself to the > 'area' you clicked on in the left column.
