Removing single popd from LP wav file

[scatterplot]

Hi. I downloaded the latest version of audacity. I read the tutorial on editing. I can click on the selection tool and highlight a region of my wav file(IE the 3 second section where I have 2 pops). This is where I hit a dead end. When I click on the edit menu, none of the selections are highlighted. The first thing I want to try is to select that 3 second region and then try using the effects to apply click reduction to that area only but none of the effects are highlighted when I click on effect. Or I want to trim that 3 second area out. I just cant get anything to light up/work in the menues. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Jim

Are you in Pause instead of Stop? Pause will cause all the effects and tools to be gray.

Oops. Ok, I got it. It works fine now. Thanks.
