Some have use the Attribute Manager to delete these layers.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

I am using AC15.

the item is Tap 11 (1) and I can not find a way to delete it. even find it for that matter. Once I realized I had pasted it in (inside a group) from another file, i thought I had deleted it.

ANY help would be great!

THANKS!

If your library loading report is saying you have a missing object then you haven't deleted it from your model but you have deleted it from your library.
Use find and select to look for all obbjects with that name.
Make sure you turn all layers on and look in all storeys.

If it is not the library loading report message you are talking about can you show us a screen capture of it?
