Altova XMLSpy 2025 Professional Edition 

Superseded by AuthenticRange.Delete

The Delete method of AuthenticRange allows to delete any range of the document, not only the current UI selection.

// ----- javascript sample -----

// instead of:

// Application.ActiveDocument.DocEditView.EditClear();

// use now:

if (! Application.ActiveDocument.AuthenticView.Selection.Delete())

   MsgBox ("Error: can't delete current selection");
