In Microsoft Project, how do I delete a task using just the keyboard?

Question

As per title, can't seem to find the KB shortcut anywhere, and it's something I frequently do.

(Windows, Project 2007)

Answer 1

You need to select the entire task first, instead of just being in a single cell:

• Select the entire row by using the [Shift]+[Space] shortcut.
• Press the [Delete] key to delete the row

There is a useful cheat sheet available on shortcutworld.

Answer 2

Looking at keyxl.com

• Select the task
• press DELETE or CTRL+"minus key" on the keypad

Answer 3

Delete entire row: Ctrl+"keypad minus key"

(as stated already, but not delete)

Note adding a task is ctrl+"keypad plus key" or just Insert
