Deleting from Inbox / Retaining in a Label folder

I am a new user and can not seem to accomplish this. How can
I label a
message, retain it in the label category and yet delete it
from my
inbox?

A common problem.  The point being that you cannot delete
something
from one place, cause there is only one message that ever
exists.
When you delete it, the whole message is gone, not only from
one view
(point being that GMail is one big box, there are no little
boxes
"folders" only different views of the box
limiting the number of
messages we see at a time).

Once you've labeled a message (I'm assuming you know how,
but here's
GMail explaining in case you didn't alreadly know/found
this:
<http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer

"Archive" it.  This will remove the message from
your "inbox view" but
the message will still exist and be viewable from your
"label view",
and searchable.

As Zack has explain use the Archive button. As a new user
you may want
to take a look at the flash demonstration
