To remove the edition container, use the DeleteEditionContainerFile

function.

filename for the edition container being deleted.

Notes: If a user cancels a publisher section within a document or closes a

document containing a newly created publisher without saving, you need to

remove the edition container.

To locate the appropriate edition container to be deleted, use the

GetEditionInfo function. You use the UnRegisterSection function

(only after using the GetEditionInfo function) to unregister the

section record and alias record of the publisher being canceled.

If the user cancels a publisher, do not call the

DeleteEditionContainerFile function until the user saves the

document. This allows the user to undo changes and revert to the last saved

version of the document.

The DeleteEditionContainerFile function only deletes the edition

container if there is no registered publisher. You need to unregister a

publisher before you can delete its corresponding edition container.

You should use the DeleteEditionContainerFile function even if there

are subscribers to the edition. When a subscriber section tries to read in

data, it receives an error.
