Delete doesnt work in Illustrator

[Perseus]

For some reason my Delete keyboard button does not work in Illustrator, but works in TextEdit, my web browsers.....why would this be?

Have you deleted your Illustrator prefs? (save a copy before you delete, just in case.)

Have you rebuilt permissions?

In what context did the delete key not work?
