Document editing errors and problems...?

Question

I'm trying to edit some typos in my word document on my XP machine with Office 2003, and i cant seem to see them anymore with all the WhiteOut all over the screen from previous editing. What do i do?

Answer 1

LOL - you made me laugh...

Okay, first scrape off the white-out off of your screen. Now using the mouse (no, not the one in the cage but the plastic thingy that came with the computer that's probably sitting beside your keyboard) and go to the first word you want to change. Hold the control button down (with your left pinky) and the shift button down (with your left ring finger) at the same time and press the left arrow (with your right hand - any finger you'd like) to go back one word or press the right arrow to go forward one word. Your word will now be highlighted. Now type in the new word - poof the old word is gone.

Oh, and by the way the little drawer that opens up on your computer when you press the little button - it's not a cup holder, it a CD-ROM drive (you put your CD in - face up to play it).

P.S. Yeah, I know you were just kiddin' but I had fun respondin'.

Cheers. :-)

Answer 2

I am in Word2000 as of this writing and am not familiar with "whiteout" in Word 2003. Also, I cannot find any reference to it.

Please send a message and be more specific.

If you are going to continue working in Word 2003, you can get some used book at a great price at:
