zombie manual bill reminder in "Bill and Income Reminders" - how do you kill this thing?Closed
i have an issue with a manual bill reminder in the "Bill and Income Reminders" which has the following: {status = done}, {Due = None}, {#Left = 0}. in the "action" column, it is indicated as (Auto). the "action" column buttons to "edit" or "skip" do not respond. when i try to delete this reminder i get an error message of "Could not delete item". i have run the "Validate File" and this does not fix the issue. please advise on how to kill this undead bill reminder!

UKR, thanks for the suggestions.
alas, the following did no work:
"Delete" in the menu bar = "Could not delete item"
selecting the reminder with mouse then shift+"Delete" = "Could not delete item"
selecting the reminder with mouse then ctrl+"Delete" = "Could not delete item"
selecting the reminder with mouse and right clicking has no menu as seen on 'working' reminders
profanity = no result but that doesn't mean it won't work if i keep trying!
perhaps there is some mystical incantation?
