Brand new at using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on Windows 10.  I'm editing a PDF Form that was previously created by someone else.  Want to DELETE the Text box or whatever square is behind the check boxes that I inserted, but have no idea how to get there.  (My check boxes are the boxes that are indicated with a light blue background.)  see web link below for a print screen.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use the Edit Text & Images tool, under Tools - Content Editing.

Sorry, I'm still unable to select that square behind the check box.  I have tried:

with Tools, Form, Edit “Mode”

as well as in Tools, Content, Edit Document “Mode”

Unable to delete in Edit Document Text “mode”, nor “Edit Object” or “Select Object”.  Are there any other suggestions?

Uploaded a new picture to Tech support Central Ottawa (inside greenbelt), Ottawa to see the print screen what I see when I'm in Adobe Writer.
