A note will appear to confirm your action and the file will disappear into trash when you release the drag.Mo Bradleyhttp://www.peachtreeink.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-4466060696166680822007-06-27T13:04:00.000-07:002007-06-27T13:04:00.000-07:00Yep, the guys are right.

I know this because I recently deleted something that was really old completely by accident. Imagine how pleased I was to find it sitting in the trash!Tony Ruscoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00027841143091561291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-56418609814070538662007-06-27T11:54:00.000-07:002007-06-27T11:54:00.000-07:00Very interesting.

I only saw it today.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.google.com/support/writely/bin/answer.py?answer=49110&topic=8631" REL="nofollow">This page</A> from the help confirms what mrrix32 said (the quote is from Google's cache):<BR/><BR/><< To delete a document or spreadsheet, follow these steps:<BR/><BR/> 1. In any one of the documents and spreadsheets lists (Active, All, Tagged, or Starred), check the box next to the document or spreadsheet you want to delete.<BR/> 2. Select "Delete" from along the bottom or top of the page. The document will now be moved to the “Deleted Docs & Spreadsheets” page (Trash).<BR/> 3. You can empty the “Deleted Docs & Spreadsheets” page by clicking on the “Browse Docs & Spreadsheets” and selecting “Deleted (Trash)” from the drop-down menu. From here, click “Empty Trash.”<BR/><BR/>Note that until you empty the trash, the deleted document will still be available to your collaborators.<BR/><BR/>If, after deleting a document or spreadsheet you wish you hadn’t, you can reverse your action as long as you haven’t emptied the trash. From the “Deleted Docs & Spreadsheets” page, check the box next to the doc or spreadsheet and click the “undelete” button. The selected item will now appear in your Docs & Spreadsheets list. >>Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-18758187335331070252007-06-27T11:19:00.000-07:002007-06-27T11:19:00.000-07:00THere's always been a trash, before it was under l...THere's always been a trash, before it was under labels with stared and all that lotMrrix32https://www.blogger.com/profile/15272219275668196072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-71420731059513984922007-06-27T09:05:00.000-07:002007-06-27T09:05:00.000-07:00We had always had Trash in the previous Docs versi...We had always had Trash in the previous Docs version.
