Hi,

I don't think you can "delete" a customer, but you can re-use the internal 
data object and edit it to change all the details into a new customer.

Think in terms of the old-fashioned filing boxes (it isn't a brilliant 
analogy, but hey): once you have taken a new empty storage box out of the 
stationery cupboard to use to hold a customer's details, you are not allowed 
to put it back as new if you find that you didn't actually need it... but you 
can stick a new label on and keep other details in it...

HTH,
Maf.
