How can I delete the expressions (NX3)that I will not use any more?
I deleted some operations and still appear in the expressions chart.

Thanks for your help

In the NX versions newer than yours there is an easy way to do it.
But there is a "long way" to do it in NX3 - It had something to do with exporting the expressions, then importing them back in - and then the unused ones will get deleted.
I am sure someone else will give you a more direct answer.
 
You can delete Expressions from within the Expression Editor, but only if they are NOT being referenced in some other expression or by some feature.

Or if you're really serious, you can go to...

File -> Utilities -> Part Cleanup...

...and in the bottom section of the dialog, toggle on the 'Delete Unused Expressions' option and hit OK.

Thanks a lot, this is the better way to clean up the unused expressions.

Thanks again
