* choose the "Select/Move ranges" tool in the upper left, just right of
the hand-with-pointing-finger tool. (it looks like a double arrow
pointing left and right, with vertical lines at the end of the arrow points)

* in any track, click and drag right or left with that tool (the
Select/Move ranges tool) to select a small range within the track, near
the beginning or end, for example.

* right-click within the selected range and from the pop-up menu select
"Extend range to end of region" or "Extend range to beginning of region."

* if you would like to include other tracks before deleting or moving
the range, press SHIFT and click at the left of each track you wish to
include, in the area beneath the name of the track.

* choose Edit-->Delete, or press the DELETE key on your keyboard.

What you are trying to work with is a range. A region in Ardour is
something else.

Best wishes,
