Hi, there is another way as well, especially if you are using spoken audio.
If you have a reasonably quiet spoken audio file with appropriate pauses
between sentences and paragraphs, pressing the down arrow will take you to
the next point of quiet quiet audio that might be a separation between these
gramatic structures.  Even if the file is not so quiet, down arrow will
often work quite well.  By the way, up arrow does the same thing in reverse.

One more tip that helps is to know that to get positioned to an exact point
in the recording, hold down the control key while pressing the left or right
arrows. This "scrubs" and repeats a small portion of the audio.

That's certainly a harder way to delete than other ways that are available.
As has been said earlier, using left bracket and right bracket to enclose
the part of the file you want to delete is much easier.  Also, holding down
the shift key when you press the delete key will guarantee that there will
be no popping sound where the pieces of the file are joined together.  This
does a tiny fade out and in where they are joined.  You can't hear it, but
it makes the sound mmore smooth.

Hi Mike,

Yep, there is.

What I do is, while I'm listening to a file, if I want to delete a part of
it from the current place in the file, I:

1. press space bar to stop the file from playing.

2. press shift right arrow, and keep holding down the right arrow key, till
I'm done selecting audio.

3. Then, I let go of those 2 keys and hit delete.

Now if I want to go to a certain place in a file, and if I know where it is,
for example, 25 minutes, I'll:

1. Press the g key

2. Then, type in 25:00.

3.  Then, I can go to the exact spot, by pressing enter.

4. Then, I shift right arrow key combo and select as much audio as I want to
be deleted.

Harry

Is there a stand alone list of the keyboard commands out there 
somewhere, preferably in a Word file?

Also, is there a simple way to select a portion of a file that you 
wish to delete, or operate on in some way without being forced to 
enter the start and stop time for the selection?

If there isn't, why not?
