How to delete documents in Lotus Notes

Document number: 10060

To delete documents from a Lotus Notes database:

Select the document(s) that you want to delete and press the Delete key. When you do, the documents do not actually disappear, but a small trash can icon appears in the left hand column.
To actually delete the documents, do one of the following:

Press F9
Click the View option of the menu bar and select Refresh
Click the refresh arrow in the upper right hand corner of the view

You are prompted to confirm the deletion of the documents.

Note: If you've marked documents for deletion and then decide that you don't want to delete the documents, select the document(s) and press Delete again. Before you refresh, verify that there is no trash can icon next to the documents you wish to keep.
