When I block text and press delete, why won't it delete?
Microsoft Word/Outlook 93
For several weeks now, I have had a problem in Microsoft Word and Outlook e-mail messages: When I am composing text and in the process, I highlight or block a word of several words of text in order to delete, the highlighted or block words will not delete when I press the delete key. I have to unblock and manually go to the words and backspace in order to delete them. Can you help me? |
