Can't delete a quick part
In Word 2007 I inserted a page number "in current position." The current
position was just above the footnotes on each page. I don't like the style I chose but now I can't delete it. No amount of left or right clicking is solving the problem. Any ideas? Anothe page number I inserted in the footer area is fine and editable. Also: the "in current position" version only appears on pages 1 - 6 but not on pages 7 - 9. Help! David Kirk |

Can't delete a quick part
Sorry! I wrote the subject before I double checked. It's not a quick part
that I can't delete, although I do notice that the "Insert Page Number" takes you to the same options as does the "Insert Quick Parts Page Numbers." In either event, the darned thing is still there. -- David Kirk "David Kirk" wrote: In Word 2007 I inserted a page number "in current position."

It is probably in a text box, so you may need to use the Drawing select tool
to be able to select and delete it. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Can't delete a quick part
Didn't work, even with CTRL. Strangest thing ... it actually appears to be
in the footer but it isn't. Keeping an eye on the ribbon bar to see formatting and selecting all around the problem ... I can select the italicized paragraph above it, the footnotes below it, but not IT. I ended up with a CTRL A, pasted the whole thing to a freh document template and, voila, the problem went away. FWIW: My workaround was going to be to put opauqe text boxes over all of the offenders. -- David Kirk "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: It is probably in a text box, so you may need to use the Drawing select tool to be able to select and delete it. -- Hope this helps.
