	Patricia You can only delete your own messages (the ones with your name in black) and there you will see options which include "update" and "delete".

The same simple problems keep coming up again and again, probably mainly because the answers given the last time are now on the previous 40 messages board, and so it isnt obvious it is there, and I suspect most people give up or lose interest after trawling through the first 40. Would a message archive be a better answer?
