How do you delete a single item in the FMEA worksheet?

When you select a single cell (you can't select the whole row) for an item in the list, and then right click and select "delete record", the resulting pull-down has all entries greyed out.

I saw someone else had the same question on 3/30/2015, and had gotten no answer.

Help desk proposed this work-around:

1. Identify the item that you want to delete from the FMEA Worksheet.

2. Select the corresponding entry in the FMEA Tree Items - System tab

3. Return to the FMEA Worksheet, right click, and select "Filter by FMEA System Tree Item Selection"

4. This will hide all Worksheet items, except the one you want to delete.

5. In the Worksheet tab, you can now right click over the item and the "Delete item" option will no longer be greyed out.

6. You can now delete the item.

7. After deleting the item you can now right click in the Worksheet to de-select the "Filter by FMEA System Tree Item Selection" in order to un-hide your other tree items.
