[X4U] Can you delete a file(move to the trash) in spotlight?

No, I do nothing special. I have a MacBook Pro and use the "delete"  
key right above the "|\" key on my keyboard.

I'm not using anything in the menu, I'm just using the keyboard  
equivalent. The menu equivalent is File/Move to Trash.

Does that help?
