ALL-IN-1 3.0

Please slap my wrists but I've tried to RTFM...

I cannot work out how to delete an application area. When I try to DA (Delete
an Application Area) it says 'Site Elements exist - cannot delete area' or
in my customers case Base elements exist. I tried to follow STARS article 
Application Area Cannot Be Deleted; Still Contains Elements
which says do :-

        CM                                                                    
        I                                                                     
        Enter area name and press RETURN                                      
        ALL                                                                   
        XD                                                                    
        PU                                                                    
                                                                              
Then attempt to delete the application area again:                            
                                                                              
        MGT                                                                   
        MA                                                                    
        DA   

However I do not see any application areas except BRITISH and SHARE under
CM I. 

Is there another way to select and delete the elements in my new application
area ?

Thanks,

Clive

    CLIVE,	
    	
    do you have the application e.g FRED selected back at AM or MA it
    sounds as if you have OA selected and are trying to delete its areas

    I did have an application AC selected with area AC_GAS selected under
    AM and MA but this was not my own so I thought it probably had some 
    problems. I therefore created a new area NORB but I can't see that  under 
    CM I. I can see it along with a number of other areas  (like L123_BRITISH, 
    MICA_SHARE, TT_TREV) under AM SEL<RETURN>{FIND}.
    Should I be able to see my new NORB application under CM I ?
    
    The customer has EARS as a Base application (installed by Kevin Laahs).
    Does this mean I should be able to see it under CM I ? If not, how do I
    delete it ?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Clive

    Clive,
    
    I cannot speak for EARS since that is a thrird-party product. I would
    have also thought that MICA shouldn't be there.
    
    You should be able to see any area for which you are MAPped - note
    that even if you create your own area you do not get access to it
    unless you MAP yourself (only the MANAGER by default)
    
    So MAP yourself and get back to us.

    Thanks,
    
    We are MAPped, but doesn't CM I just give us access to the site
    elements ? How do you delete the Base elements ?
    
    Cheers,
