How do I delete an object

I have imported a document from Word, and the footer came in as an object. I can delete the text within the object, but I can't seem to delet the object itself, even though it is selectable. How do I go about deleting the object?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Word does some strange things with objects, page numbers, etc. that don't survive translation to Pages very well. Usually these things get converted to master or background objects. Go to Format > Advanced & choose Make master objects selectable & then go to Arrange & select Make background objects selectable. You still might not be able to click on them if they are behind text so you need to command-click outside of the margins & drag the cursor toward the object until it is selected. You can then use the Arrange menu to bring the object to the front.

How can I delete an object?

If I create a JLabel, how can I delete it?
Somebody told me that with remove.
How do you use it?

This is not "deleting an object" it is "removing a GUI element from a container". You can not "delete an object" in Java, you can remove all references to it and let the GC get rid of it, but from the body of your question it sounds like you want to "removing a GUI element from a container" not "delete an object".

DM3.0 EA2: How do I delete an object with a transformation?

How can I delete a table column as a transformation (tools -> design rules -> transformations)?
I have tried doing this:
if (column.getName().startsWith("created_by")) { delete column; }
but nothing seems to happen...
- Marc de Oliveira

Thank you very much! :-)
Btw, I think it is a really bad idea that the "Table template" transformation is somehow linking the template columns to the actual template table. The script should only base the decision about creating new columns on the column name and not consider if a column was originally created from the template.
Reason 1: If you have created "updated_by" columns on half of your tables before deciding to create a template table and use the "Table template" transformation then all the tables that already have an updated_by column will receive an updated_by1 column.
Reason 2 (my problem): If you delete the template table (by accident) and then recreate it. All columns based on the previous template table will be ignored and you will receive an updated_by1 column on all tables.
The script should just see if a column with the same name exist and only create a new column if it does not already exist.

How can I delete Z.SAPB18.8_MyPO object from B1iSN 8.8

Dear All,
I have created only one object type (apart from the B1iSN default one)
Ex: For the Purchase Order object (LocalObjectId = 22) I defined only one B1iSN object type.
but I have the same error message "Sender SysId, Sender ObjectType or Sender payload is missing".
suppose If by mistake I create two B1iSN object types for the same B1 object (same local object id)
how can I delete one object from those two objects.
Thanks and Regards,
Anvar

Hi Anvar,
Z-objects always have priority against standard objects.
=> if you have more Z-objects for the same local object ID, it's always the latest created object
If you created an Z-object, please make sure, that the BIUs can handle this object.
All default integration scenarios need to be adjusted or copied to support the newly created z object.
If you want to delete your newly created object, go to SAP B1iSN Tools -> Repository Tools -> Entities - Remove:
Select your Entity Type (e.g. Object Type) and your Entity Instance (e.g. Z.SAPB18.8_MyPO) and press button Delete Entity.
B1iSN gives you information, if there're constraints (e.g. Publication Object or object is used in an active integration scenario) and the object can't be deleted.
Best regards
Bastian

Delete Business Object Type (SWO1)

Hi gurus,
How can we delete/modify objects in SWO1 that were created in a previous version. Are these actions allowed, is there a workaround if its not allowed?
Thanks for your help!
Jason

Hi Raymond,
Thank you for your help.
I have come accross that thread in SDN while doing some research already. But It does not completely answer my question.
Correct me if I'm wrong, this means there is absolutely no workaround to modify a business object type that has been created in a different version? If thats the case why does SAP enforce this rule?
Thank you

Deleting an object in a graph

Hi everyone.
I wanted to ask a question about how exactly one deletes an object on a graph.If we say that the graph is like a tree i.e with root , leaves and other nodes that are in between how one deletes a specified object?

A very simple way of describing such a tree/graph structure relatively efficiently is "keep a pointer to your parent/ancestor/predecessor and each parent/ancestor/predecessor has some kind of Collection of all its children/successors. If you want to delete an item (including all its successors) just go to the parent's Collection and remove it.
//this is not very elegant code for maximum simplicity
public class Node {
public Collection children = new HashSet();
public Node parent = null;
public void addChild(Node node){
    node.parent = this;
    this.children.add(node);
public void remove(){
    this.parent = null;
    parent.children.remove(this);
public static void main(String[] args){
    Node root = new Node();
    root.addChild(new Node());
    root.addChild(new Node());
    Node n1,n2;
    root.addChild(n1 = new Node());
    n1.addChild(n2 = new Node());
    n2.remove();
    n1.remove();

How to delete all objects in a package?

Hello,
I've seen a similar question here. But is there a tool or a smart way to delete all objects in a dev class or a transport request?
Best Regards
Volker

These are really 3 questions??
1. To delete objects in a request there are a number of ways, here is one:
Position cursor on modifiable request.
Double click on request and choose 'Objects' tab
Choose object line you want to delete and click 'Delete'
Save your changes.
2. To delete objects in a Dev Class:
Go to work bench --> edit object, Class and give your class name, you will see delete option at the bottom of the screen.
3. How to delete all objects in a package:
here is a link with the steps you need for this: http://benxbrain.com/en/index.do?onInputProcessing(brai_object_thread)&001_threadid=0000161442&sysid=WP5&pgmid=R3TR&object=DOMA&obj_name=DEVCLASS&child_param=

How to determine deleted objects in a transport

Hi
I create a new report Z_TEST_1 and assign this one to a new transport request.
Now I rename this report to Z_TEST_1B
In my transport are two entries:
-Z_TEST_1
-Z_TEST_2
Now I read this objects with function module TR_READ_COMM
Afterwards I want to analyse the objects of this transport
But how can I see which objects exists and which not?
I only need the (still) existing objects (in my test case: Z_TEST_2)
I don't want to check every single object if this object still exists. I know I could check the entry in table TRDIR (for reports).
But there are a lot more object kinds in my transport (function modules, dictionary objects, forms, table keys)....
Does anyone have a simple solution for this problem?
Thanks
Andy

Hello There.
SE03 is for finding the existing objects according to your first question (for function modules, reports, etc).
As your object is not imported or transported.
You need to find your deleted objects in Transaction SE95.
In the window beneath,
1. Go to window, Reset Objects.
2. Check the deleted objects.
3. You can also mention your request or package.
4. Execute.
5. Go to Deleted objects node.
6. Navigate to the node desired.
7. You can also find the request related to that business object by clicking on find requests.
These are the logs.
If you have already tried out then its good or else give feedback.
Good Luck & Regards.

How to delete an object from a change master?

I have a situation where a PDM has copied a route (task list) that was tied to a change master and brought it over by mistake, the route was also copied to the wrong group number and counter. What I want to do is have the route deleted and recreated with it's own group number and counter 1, however because it is linked to a change master it keeps pulling in that same group number. Any idea how to correct this or remove the material from the change master, we've tried to delete the object but get the message that not all objects were deleted and it is still there.
Thanks in advance.

HI sathish,
1. If the old request is release,
   then we cannot do anything.
(There is no point in changing that old request)
(bcos its already released)
2. what can be done is that
   u save once again the objects,
   and it will once again ask for new request.
3. this time save it in new request

How to delete a object in ODS

I am facing a problem in deleting a ZOBJECT which was mistakenly added in two ODS.
When I try to delete the object, it says that -
cannot delete/move the locked info objects.
(Infact, this object is unlocked).
I opened the ODS from which it has to be deleted, I tried in Extras unlock objects. When I select this option it giving me a warning that data in the ODS will be lost.
This ZOBJECT has been moved to Prod. System in other ODS. Now I need to delete this object which is in ODS which is in development. This wrong ODS and object is not transported. I need to delete this only in DEV.
Could some body explain me how to delete the ZOBJECT from the ODS?
Thanks
Ravi

HI Ravi,
In general u vl face such error if u try to delete object from a ODS that has data already. So, in order to overcome this error try removing data from ODS and perform required action. You cannot remove objects from ODS without removing data from ODS.
I hope it helps you.

How can i delete an java object immediately?

Is there any mechanism that delete an object immediately?
I know I can delete an java object by GC mechanism, but it can not be effective immediately.
is there any other solutions?
thanks -:)

And you did an internet search to try and find out how to delete Java from your computer? Well, this forum is for Java programmers, people who write programs using the Java language. Not for people who use those programs. But it was a good try.
The easiest thing for you to do is just to leave Java on your computer. It won't do any harm (aside from taking up a bit of space on your disk) and if you go to a web site that contains an applet, it might even be useful. Maybe that's why you got the link in the first place.
If you really want to get rid of it, then go into Control Panel and use Add and Remove Programs to do that. (It's called something else in Vista, I forget what, hope you didn't get stuck with that.) But I would still suggest leaving it on your computer.
