Deleting Variables at the Book Level
Have you tried View->Pods->Variables at the book level with all files open in the book? In the pod, select All Open Docs. Granted you can delete only one variable at a time, but I find it really helpful to see all of the variables for all of the files lined up alphabetically and work through them that way.
