Answering message I can't figure out how to erase an old answering message and record a new one!

New messages must be deleted one by one.
All old messages can be deleted in one shot. When the system isn't recording or playing, press and hold the ERASE button until it announces "Messages Erased."

To erase a message while it is playing, press the ON/OFF ERASE button. The

answering system announces, "Message Erased" to confirm the message has been

erased.

To Erase All Messages: When the answering system isn't playing or recording messages, press and hold

the ERASE button until you hear the "Messages Erased" announcement. Release the

button after the announcement. This feature allows you to erase all old messages

but not new messages. If you do not have any messages, the answering system

announces, "Zero Messages."

5 minutes. New messages cannot be recorded when:

HAPPY TRAILS!!

sorry it sounds like the folder may be lost forever.once you pressed the record button, the recorder knew it as a new recording in that folder.look at it like a answering machine going out message. if you made a mistake,and you wanted to record a new message,the old message would be erased.if your folder was on a cassette recorder, you would have only erased those few seconds.
sorry

Try just pressing down on the greeting button on the answering machine, you will hear the lady say "record greeting" and keep holdong down until you are finished recording the message. When you are done, remove your finger, done!
