I kept deleting all of the remainder of the track and was tearing my hair out.
I finally figured out how to do it tonight and am posting what I hope are clear and unambiguous instructions below for the benefit of other newbies.
1. Select the track you want to work on.
2. Left click on the bar line before the part you want to delete.
3. Press the S key on your keyboard.
4. Left click on the bar line after the part you want to delete.
5. Press the S key on your keyboard.
6. Left click in the middle of the bar/s you want to delete.
7. Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
This is with 'Ripple Editing' turned off in the 'Options' Menu.
I hope this is helpful to people as it was really doing my head in not being able to do this.

very clear bohma
a slight difference for me:
Zoom in to make the parameters of your delete easier to see
I leave small bits of the part I want to delete in the track
Once I have deleted the middle part I drag the left and right part to exactly where I want them to stop and start.
