Project Phases - Deleting

I cannot delete a project because it has a 'phase' lurking below it. My problem is that I cannot figure out how to delete the phase. :(

You can find the phase on the "Phases" tab of the project. You'll then want to click on the little green arrow to the left of the phase. That will take you to the phase's record where you can use FileMaker's built in delete record command to delete it. You can then return to the original project which will now have one less phase.

I guess we just should have put a trash can on that portal row on the project's phases tab, but at the time it seemed like deleting phases was a pretty significant action and we didn't want to make it too easy. Sorry for the confusion.

BTW, if you want to get into this a little deeper you can read this...

...especially the link to "deleting contacts" in the opening paragraph.

Hope that helps.
