What do you mean they're inaccessible?

If you mean that they stay in existence even though they have no owner 
(i.e. they've been deleted), try purging the undo records and 
emptying the trash (both from the World menu). If they still hang 
around, you can use the "objects pointing to" or "chase pointers" 
menu items in the explorer or inspector.

If you mean that they're still in the World but you can't see them, 
you can do one of the following:

* to get a delete button, do a shift-click on the desktop, select the 
Morph you want to kill, and you MAY see its delete (X) handle come 
up. Click this to get rid of the Morph. However, this apparently only 
works when the Morph is to the left of the world.

* to move morphs back inside the world boundaries, choose "playfield 
options/round up strays", which should move all the morphs back in 
bounds.

Failing this (like if you have a morph with a negative extent, like I 
just had), you can explore the world's submorphs and evaluate "self 
delete" on the ones you want to get rid of.
