    I have had similar experiences with seemingly undeletable objects in
    drawings and have generally found them to be OLE objects. Try checking your
    OLEFRAME setting. If it is at 0, you can't delete the object, if it is at 1
    or 2, you can delete the object. If this doesn't work, try IMAGEFRAME and
    set it to ON.

    Hope this is of some assistance.
