Hi Timothy, The image may be behind the text frame. Try clicking outside the text frame so that nothing is selected, and then repeat the Esc o n command (= select (o)bject (n)ext) a few times. If it works, you'll see sizing handles on the image when it is selected. Then press Delete. Alternatively you could select the text frame (Ctrl + click the border) and cut it to the clipboard, then select and delete the image before re-pasting the text frame.
