Cannot use the delete key for deleting a block of text
I am unable to delete a block of text in any word document. I am ablet to
delete a single character within a word document. The cut function works to specification. I am able to use the block and delete function within WordPad. I am able to block and delete within Excel. I have tried to detect and repair to no avail. I have tried uninstalling Word 2003 to no avail. I have tried uninstalling MS Office 2003 to no avail. Does anyone know of a MS Office 2003 un-erase utility? Short of that has anyone else experience this problem? |
