From: Y Fashions Y on 23 Apr 2010 09:43 I must have changed a setting without knowing. All of a sudden I cannot delete a part of a document by highlighting it and simply pressing the delete key. The delete key does not work. Where do I rectify this setting please.
From: Rae Drysdale on 23 Apr 2010 10:34 In Word 2003, click on Tools | Options | Edit | check the "Typing replaces selection" box | OK. Probably on the big 'pizza' button in 2007, but I'm still avoiding using 2007 so not sure. -- Rae Drysdale "Y Fashions" wrote: > I must have changed a setting without knowing.
