How to delete workbooks from the database

You delete a workbook when you no longer want to use the workbook, and want to remove it permanently from the database. Before deleting old workbooks, make sure that no other Discoverer users want to use the workbook in the future.

To delete a workbook from the database:

1. Choose Tools | Manage Workbooks to display the "Manage Workbooks dialog".

3. Click Delete to delete the workbook and close the dialog.

   Note: You can only delete workbooks that you own. The Delete button is only grayed out if you do not own the currently selected workbook (for more information, see "About sharing workbooks and security").

4. Click Yes at the confirmation dialog.

   The selected workbook is permanently removed from the database.
