I am just as BAD clipping on the GW as I am with written snippits of recipes all over the house, lol. I blame it on my daughter being born now, almost 17 years ago, because I look at all the typed recipes in binders arranged in order in plastic sleeves from our catering and food manufacturing business that I typed before she was born and wonder what happened to me!

I've never used that feature, either. I do something else. I highlight that which I want to save, right click, choose "copy" open up a blank document in Word and right click "paste". Then I name the document something like "Tomato Tips" and save it in a folder on my computer named "Garden". I've got a lot of "Dawn" stuff in there!! That way is easier for me, and more permanent.

OK you obviously know where the files are on the computer, we'll assume here they are in My Documents/Clippings. This means they are all in a sub folder of My Documents in the folder Clippings. Right click the Start button click Explore in the pop up and a new window appears - Windows Explorer On the left side near the top look for My Documents click the small plus + sign beside it and other folders that are inside that folder now show underneath click the Clippings folder and all the contents now appear on the right side of your screen. To select those to delete one at a time simply right click on any file in the right side and in the pop up click Delete. Confirm and it is gone. To delete more than one at a time hold down the CTRL button on the keyboard then click each item to be deleted so it becomes highlighted. When ready release the CTRL button, right click on any highlighted file and click Delete in the pop up. Confirm. To delete a contiguous batch click the first one to be deleted to highlight it, hold down the Shift key and click the last one to be selected. Now all those in between are highlighted, right click on any one of those and click Delete in the pop up. Confirm. Done, assuming that is what you want.
