I don't know how it happened, but I have two Places Lists (All Places and All Places (2) ), and both seemingly identical.
How do I delete one of them?
Also, one of the ticked boxes at the left of the list has a red/orange background. Why is that?

Re: Delete List of Places
When you click on show places/all, the map window will open and will be populated with all your places. If you click places/all again, it adds another list to the existing places windows, and calls the list Places(2). You can have as many lists as you like in the map window, (e.g. places in different counties) each using a different coloured icon when a place is selected.
Nothing wrong, just close the Places window completely and re-open it, it will open with a single list

Thanks Mike - never noticed it before!
Do you know the answer to my other query - one of the ticked boxes at the left of the list has a red/orange background. Why is that?

Re: Delete List of Places
This is the explanation of the colour coding from the FH Help files:
For further details, when you have the Map window open click Map in the top-most toolbar (above the main toolbar) and select View Legend.... This opens the Help file at the relevant page.
