Deleting a Query

You can delete a query from the knowledge base in one of two ways.

• Directly delete a query at the Queries Tab 
• Delete the query as an instance of PAL-QUERY at the Instances Tab

At the Queries Tab

At the Queries tab, you may not see the query you wish to delete. In this case, you will have to make sure it is displayed.

1. Go to the PAL Queries Tab
2. In the Choose Queries pane, click on the query you wish to delete. 
   OR
3. If the query you wish to edit is not visible in the Choose Queries pane, click the  Add button to view a list of queries, then choose the one you want and click OK.
4. Click the Delete button at the upper right of the Choose Queries pane.
