"Select All": Where ?
Hello,
Embarrased to ask, but just can't find it. Is there an icon somewhere to click on that does in effect a "Select All" that will highlight everything in a text document for possible copying or cutting ? Thanks, B. |

In addition to the menu items Greg suggests, the easiest way to select
everything in the main body of the document is to Ctrl+click in the left margin. -- Suzanne S.

Ctrl+Clicking in the margin doesn't work in W2007, but triple-clicking in
the margin does. Terry Farrell "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Working here too now. I changed a setting for my Logitech mouse which
brought back the function: strangely though, when I reverted the setting, it still worked! Terry "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

For me, it seems to be a question of whether I have selected text beforehand
or not: if no text is selected, Ctrl+Click in the left margin selects all. If text is selected, Ctrl+Click selects a line of text only or a row in case of a table. I see the same behavior in Word 2003. However, I most often use Ctrl+A. -- Regards Lene Fredborg - Microsoft MVP (Word) DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Terry Farrell" wrote: Working here too now.
