I dpn't have Audacity on my computer at present, but from what I remember
there is a tool in the "Effects" menu for this. Look for something along the
lines of "noise reduction" in the list of effects.

If you can't find the help you need on this newsgroup then there is an
Audacity mailing list that is very friendly and knowledgeable - I'm sure
they will be able to help with any questions. Here's the url to join:
