Unfortunately you cannot delete single geocaching waypoints with the explorists 210 series. You have to delete the entire file the waypoints are in. :)

If it is the same as my 400 you should be able to go to the geocache file (without viewing) and press menu and it should bring up a window that has move, delete, and something else. I just created a new folder for all my found caches and move them into there, just incase I may want to revisit a cache. I have the SD card so space is not a problem though.

I just delete them before my next geocaching outing, I just run a new PQ for the area and when I load the new file it overides the old file the uses the same name, were I live there are so many new caches being place every week a cacher around here would not want to go out without a new file. haveing a new file also eliminates recenty archived of disabled caches.

I have never understood the need some cachers have to deletes a cache waypoint in the feild.

yes i have a 210 and i bought mine as a bundle and it came with a disc to install that had a progrm that manages your files so i decided to mess around with it on summer break because i had filled half my memory so i clicked on i think it was manage pois and up came this note pad document with all these numbers so i thought how in the world am i supposed to delete these things by deleting them off this well i did any way i trashed all the pois i found by just backspacing all the numbers and letters in each rowhtat had the name at the end of the pois that i didnt want and i did a file save and i unplugged my gps and instead of 250 points taken up i had 40!!! i cant belived how i figured it out.

The 210 won't recharge batteries; you would need to remove them and stick them in an external charger. Only the 4/5/600 have a Li-ion battery that recharges in the GPS.
