I can no longer highlight a word and delete it using "Backspace"
It is common for me to highlight a word or paragraph and hit the backspace
button to delete the word or parapgraph. Now when I do that, the cursonr moves to the "home" position which is the beginning of the word or paragraph. This must be an internal setting or a keyboard short cut that I advertently changed. any ideas how to restore it, or is it a "key defect"? |
