    The most common cause of it being grayed out is if that is the view you are currently on. The program won't let you delete a view that you are currently on.  You would want the HomeBase View to show as one of the defaults like Form 1040: Individual before trying to delete the 't' view.

    You can delete custom views in the program:

    • Make sure you are not on the view you want to delete. 
    • From the HomeBase menu choose Delete View....
    • Pick the custom view you want to delete. 

    If you want to remove a standard view (say Form 1040 Individual) that would involve uninstalling the form type.
