Word List improvement

Sometimes I want to quickly check word usage/counts in several passages, but it seems I have to load 3 different Word Lists to examin 3 different passages, then delete the three Word Lists when I'm done.

Once I've loaded and examined a Word List with data from one passage, I'd like a way to clear its contents and then load and examine another passage without adding it to the previous passage data. (I can't find a "clear contents" function.) 

Ideally, if I clear the data from a Word List and then close it, it would be nice if the system did NOT save the empty word list so I don't have to delete the empty Word List.

See http://community.logos.com/forums/t/88067.aspx for background info.

    If you select one row in the Word List and then hit CTRL+A, then all rows will be selected. Then hit DEL, and they'll all be deleted.

    Hi Mark,

    YES! that did it. (This is one of those, "Why didn't I think of that" moments.)  Thank you.

    Now, if only the system wouldn't save a new, empty "Untitled Word List" file...  (This is a hint, Logos, Please?)
