Word 2007 Highlighting Issue
Is it possible to change the default for Word when you highlight text
immediately after a word it also highlights the word to the left of the highlight. However if you highlight with a space after the word to the left, it leaves it alone. I'm too clumsy with my mouse, but I do know if I start highlighting to the right of a word I do not want the word immediately to the left included in the hightlight. Hope this makes sense. Thanks. |

Word 2007 Highlighting Issue
The option is 'When selecting, automatically select entire word'. Where you
find it depends on which version of Word you are using. In versions previous to W2007, it is under Tools, Options, Edit tab: in Word 2007, it is in Word Options, Advanced under the Editing section. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "WSR" wrote in message ...
