    Word 2000 - problem when selecting text

    Hello Peter Thanks for the further suggestion. I see what you mean, but selecting right to the end of a document is no problem - WORD will scroll there in a microsecond with a normal click & drag down. The problem arose if I wanted to stop before getting to the end. The previous suggestion from...

    Word 2000 - problem when selecting text

    Ah yes, of course. I should have thought of that. That's the same as selecting a group of files when using Windows Explorer - 'Shift' for first and last of a group, 'Ctrl' for random selection of several at a time.

    Can't change the volume label on a floppy disk

    The LABEL command should enable me to change or delete the volume label on a floppy disk. It works fine on my 486 running Windows 95, but when I try to do this on my Pentium III running Win98 ME it comes back with "Error deleting volume label" Is there a setting I need to change? Note...
