We have a surface with some bad points. We have these points displayed, along with the contours.
We go Modify>Surface>Edit Surface>Delete Point.
Program says: "You must have surface points displayed for this operation. Edit the surface style and try again."
Yet here are the points, displayed right in front of us! (see appended image)
What are we missing?

Those appear to be cogo points, which are different than surface points.
If you have created a surface from cogo points as from a point group, you may edit the point group to exclude the points you don't want. The surface will update accordingly.
Surface points are usually added manually and only exist as a part of the surface object, therefore they must be displayed by the style to be edited or deleted.
McL,
Take out the bad points. Put in good points.
Where to delete surface points depends on how the surface was built.

You are displaying COGO points, not surface TIN points.

Please use the Accept as Solution or Kudo buttons when appropriate
Assign a surface style that displays the surface points in Plan. The points are turned on in the display tab of the surface style properties dialog

If they are just regular cogo points, just "move", "delete" or whatever in a normal fashion. (Provided they are not in a survey database.)

right click on the surface you are editing (under Toolspace > Prospector), select 'Edit Surface Style'. In the pop-up window, go to 'Display' tab, turn 'Points' component on. Points symbol will now appear on your surface, and you should be able to deleted points from surface.
Note: point symbols may be be huge, you can change sizes under Points tab > Points Size
