# Deleting Objects

Under the Manage Objects tab, choose the class of the object to be deleted. Select (left-click) the object(s) to be deleted. CTRL+left-click toggles the selection on individual objects and SHIFT+left-click allows you to select a range of objects. Right-click your selection, and a menu will appear. Choose delete.

When an object is deleted, any objects which pointed at the deleted object via a Relationship will now contain a stale pointer. RIB will automatically detect these stale pointers and will delete them from the affected objects. Note that this can cause an object to lose a Relationship which is required in your data model. Remote objects (objects not in your repository) which pointed at the deleted object via a Relationship will contain a stale pointer.
