You were probably trying to delete the logical at the wrong access mode.
There are three access mode at which the DEASSIGN command can work:
	USER_MODE:  Normally not a problem, because these go away automatically
		at image rundown;
	SUPERVISOR_MODE:  The default access mode;
	EXECUTIVE_MODE:  This is the mode at which the logical name was
		probably defined.  To delete the logical, you need to
		DEASSIGN/EXEC.

understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below).  So
unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my
organization responsible for it.  If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to
hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
