Is there a way to delete a user created column?

The same place you created it

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP
That is the only recovery if you mess up (and that is only good in this case if you add no more books before you 'recover'. Then you will need to do other cleanup)

Preferences: Add your own columns
Select the column and use the recycle bin icon

Thanks. It didn't even occur to me.

I was looking for a minus (-) (similar to the plus +) or a trashcan.

Thanks, again.

I think the recycle bin was used because in this case you can dump A LOT of data rather than remove a simple item.
