Went into the zone properties and deleted the old one..

<div>
Are you trying to delete it from secondary zone ?<br />
<br />
In that case you will not be able to delete that<br />
<br />
If this is not the case, check if you have permissions to delete DNS records<br />
<br />
Put your ID in DnsAdmins group \ domain admins group in active directory, logoff once and log back on and check if you are able to delete that
