backspace
Hi
In Word, when I highlight a word and hit backspace, that word doesn't get deleted. Backspace without highlighting will delete, or hitting Delete key will delete. I tried on other apps (like NotePad), and highlighting and backspace would delete fine. Please let me know how I can get my normal backspace back in Word. Thanks Steve |

On the Tools menu, click Options. Click the Edit tab. Check the
"Typing replaces selection" option, and click OK. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "SP" wrote in message ... Hi In Word, when I highlight a word and hit backspace, that word doesn't get deleted.
