When highlighting text and delete, "Delete block" mesg appears
Hi,
After using Word for 10 years, something new just happened. When I double-click to highlight a word (or block of words), in the past, hitting the delete key would delete whatever was highlighted. Now, I get a small message on the bottom left of my screen that says: "Delete Block? No (Yes)" Hovering the cursor over either choices and clicking, does nothing. If anyone has run into this and solved it, please let me know. Thanks. |
