VS Pro 2003 C++. I have made a Win Form project with several
buttons and a GroupBox for radio buttons. I would now like
to remove the Group Box and all its code from form1.h
I can make the box disappear by setting the visible
property to 'false', but how do I remove the code for it ?

Thanks

In C# you can just select it and press DEL. It should work for C++ too.

Thanks, lukasz, I looked for 'del' under Menu Edit but this
was greyed out, perhaps because I had already entered
some code into the radio button event handlers.

But the DEL key itself sounds promising, I'l try that.

Thanks

Solved !

I clicked on the Group Box and found that Menu->Edit->del
was greyed out. Of course it would be as it had two sub-components
on it - the radio buttons. When I clicked a radio button Edit-del
worked fine. Remove the buttons in the Group box and Edit-del
let me delect the box. Removed all the 'this->' code too.
I just wish Microsoft had entries for 'Removing' 'Deleting'
'Erasing' in its search engine and indexes.

Thanks
