Default How to disable "delete block?" confirmation?

I've just installed Office 2003. When I select a block of text and press the
delete key, a confirmation dialogue appears at the bottom (status bar) asking
me if I want to "delete block (yes/no)?" How can I tell Office to delete the
text without the confirmation?

Thanks!

In Word, click on Tools | Options | General | uncheck the two boxes for
WordPerfect help and navigation | OK.
