![]() Jun 20, 2017 - When you have a deadline and it's already 3 p.m., you don't want to waste time fumbling with a technical detail in Microsoft Word. And yet there. In MS Word 2003, if I highlight a word/paragraph and press the Backspace button it doesn't delete the text. If I highlight a word/paragraph and type another word it doesn't delete the highlighted word/para. I'm forced to use the Delete button now. The Backspace button used to be my go to button- loved it. In Firefox, Windows, anywhere else I can still use Backspace as before; only Windows has this problem. Another problem that I just notice is that I can press Tab to indent a paragraph, but when I try to use Shift+Tab to bring it back it simply pushes the text further to the right, as if I'd just pressed Tab again. ![]() Again this is only in Word. Maybe related? I must have made some change but don't know what I did. I really don't remember doing anything out of the ordinary. Does anyone know how to change this setting? I was in the middle of typing a long document without any issues. All of a sudden, I can't use my backspace key to delete text. I tried to do as suggested: Go into Tools>Options>Edit and check Typing replaces selection. The box was already checked but I unchecked and rechecked it just in case. Did not work. I copied and pasted the document into a new Word document - did not work. I notice when I open a brand new document the same thing happens in randome places on the document. It has become so difficult to type and correct errors, it is driving me crazy. Any suggestions would be welcome - using Word 2010. So, I know this thread is old, but i could not find much else on this topic and wanted to share my answers. It turns out, I could not delete on specific documents or replace text and my replace text box was checked and everything working. Then one day I thought about how old word programs worked and how the insert button could deter deleting. I hit my insert button on that document and then VOILA!! I could delete the text and everything again. So days and days of research and it was simply the insert key.
