I know that I can select an item from a gallery go to the forms display screen and create a delete button to remove ThisItem. What if I want the warning to appear at the gallery level. Have a trash can icon click it then have a window come up for that one record?

just have your trash button set a visibility variable for the real button. then when you click trash it will make that button appear within the gallery and you can click it to go through with the deletion. Keep in mind you will also want to select the item and put in the visibility if the variable is XX and this item is selected then visible. Otherwise you will press the button and the go forward button will pop up on every item in the gallery

Sorry I am having a hard time following you. What do you mean by put in the visibility?

your controls (the warning button) will have a visible property. In there instead of the basic true, you would put something like
If(And(ThisItem.IsSelected,customvisibilityVar=true),true,false)
then on the regular trash icon you just put in the onselect something like
Select(Parent); Set(customvisibilityVar,true)
also don't forget when you press you confirm deletion button to also reset your custom variable for the visibility to false so that the confirm deletion button will disappear
