Delete key works only for characters, not paras. What happened?
My Delete key no longer works in Word and Outlook when I select paragraphs to
be deleted. Deletes *letters* to the right when cursor is in middle of a line. Message appears at lower left-hand corner of the Word screen when I select a block of text and hit the Delete key: "Delete Block? No (Yes)" I press"Y" and the block of text is deleted. Delete key works fine in Excel I suspect I have inadvertently turned something off (or on?). |

In Word, click on Tools | Options | General | uncheck the two
boxes for WordPerfect help and navigation | OK. katherinebryce wrote: My Delete key no longer works in Word and Outlook when I select paragraphs to be deleted.
