Cutting surfaces?

    I'm trying to make a cut through some surfaces. There are two kinds:
    1. A planar cut (like taking a section view, except I want to actually
    delete the entities)
    2. A hole or slot into a surface.

    I'm sure it can be done, but I just don't know the tool I should be using.
    I hoped it would be the same as making a cut through a solid part, but the
    insert > cut menu is not available... Anyone know what I should be doing?

    Thanks, Sven.
