Can't delete with "Backspace" any more in MsWord.
If I select some text in Word and press Backspace the selection deselects but
it does not delete the text. It stays there. I can only delete using the Delete button which is not in a handy place on my keyboard. Also if I select some text and start writing, the text deselects and what I write goes in formt of the selection. How can I change this? |
