Delete key failure and hot key problem
I am using Word 2003 and just in the past few days have started having a
problem deleting selected text or graphics with the delete key. I can delete words one letter at a time, but not as a selected group. I receive the message on the bottom bar: "Delete block? no (yes)". Clicking on the either part of the message does nothing but get rid of it. I do not have this problem in other applications. Also the usual Control+Home no longer takes me to the top of my page, but instead opens the Find & Replace window. Can anyone tell me what is going on here? Did some recent update cause this? |

Delete key failure and hot key problem
Both problems have the same cause. On the General tab of Tools | Options,
clear the check boxes for both items that refer to WordPerfect. -- Suzanne S.
