Mastering Revit Architecture 2010 - Ch. 3 Know Your Editing Tools - Editing Elements Interactively: Extending and Splitting Lines and Walls

"Next to the Trim tool, you will find the Extend tool. There you will see two options: Trim/Extend Single Element and Trim/Extend Multiple Elements."

"This tool lets you extend single or multiple instances of lines and walls. The first option, Trim/Extend Single Element, is for extending a single wall. To extend a wall, first select a target wall; then select the wall you want to extend to that target. The second option, Trim/Extend Multiple Elements, lets you extend many walls in one interaction."

Splitting Lines and Walls - ...operates on walls and lines. This tool lets you slice a line or wall into few pieces. To cut a wall, place the cursor over the edge of the wall. Before you click, you’ll see a preview of the split line before clicking. The Options bar offers ...feature called Delete Inner Segment that removes the need to use the Trim tool."

(I tried this a few times and could not get a clean edge no matter what I did, I suggest Splitting in the middle of the wall you want gone, the using the trim command to get smooth corners)
