Try dragging the highlight away from the annotation before deleting it?

You can also tap the black squares (icon just right of big black arrow) and select the annotation from the list

Consider using a background colour for your text - that way you don't have to try positioning a highlight over the text.

Thanks, Geoff.  I will try these soon and let you know as soon as I get to my tablet.  I just want to acknowledge your quick response.
