In the Forms Designer in on a Windows PC, you use Ctrl > to insert a new element, and Ctrl < to delete an element. You can find this by getting "keyboard help" (with Ctrl K) while you are in the "Column Specification" property window.

I had a tough time trying to get rid of the blank elements, too. Before I found the above method, I deleted the element at run time from my When-New-Form-Instance trigger. (This brings to mind: Square peg, round hole, big hammer, no problem ;-)
