deleting all via's per net

Is there a way to delete all the vias assigned to a specific net?  I feel there should be a way to do this.  In the delete command, there is an options tab but I have not been able to find out any information on how this works.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Yes use the new Find by Query option (need 17.2-2016 for this). In the Find pane click on Find by Query then choose Vias and Nets, pick the net you are interested in and in the Matching Objects you'll see the vias and their locations. If you click the cell above Number 1 they will all highlight, then simply click on the Delete icon.

    Thanks, that worked perfectly.  I can see the query feature coming into use later.
