Microsoft Word Glitch...

I have an issue with my ms word program- anyone know how to fix it?

When I highlight words, (i.e. ctrl+A) and hit backspace, the words don't delete themselves. They're supposed to... but it doesn't work... anyone know what I have set wrong and how to reset it?

That sounds pretty weird. Is it just MS Word that the backspace button isn't working in?

I don't know what could be wrong given what you've said. If you can't figure out what to do though, the delete key should work the same way.

The delete key works, and the backspace key works. I just can't highlight a word and delete it with backspace... it works with delete.

I can highlight and delete a word with backspace on the internet, too... it's just MSW.

I can scientifically prove that boredom can kill you. However, by the time I figure out how to prove it, I'd have already died of boredom.

Is getting help really that important? I mean, the delete key works, just use that. It is a bit inconvenient, but still, moving your finger an extra inch shouldn't be too much of a big deal.

It'd be a bit easier for me to help if I could go there myself and take a look.

<_< Damn. It's just really annoying, because I'm trying to type... and I can erase properly.

If you have it on, there should be three letters: OVR highlighted near the bottom of your screen. Turn it off with the insert key.
