Default delete a vertical block selection (Office 2007)

I used to be able to click and drag to highlight a vertical column of text
and hit the delete key to make it go away. I can still perform the highlight,
but clicking the delete key no longers performs a delete. What's changed?

Nothing has changed -- it works correctly here. Does your Delete key work with
other selections in Word?
