SUMMARY
=======
 
When a program is deleted from the Bob Home Shell, the program description
still shows up on the program list.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
Once a program has been added to Bob's list, it remains on the list in case
Bob needs to add the program later.
 
To remove the program from the list, rename or delete the
program's executable file, then have Bob try to add the program again. When
Bob is not able to find the program, you have the option of removing the
program from the list.
 
NOTE: For more information about how to perform this task in Windows, see
your Windows printed documentation or online Help.
