You can use the Shift+click method to select as much text as you want.
- Press Delete to delete the selection.
Word also deletes the space after the selection.
- In the fourth bullet point, double-click the word Forge, and then replace it by
typing Build.
Notice that you don’t have to type a space after Build. Word inserts the space
for you.
Tip Word inserts and deletes spaces because the Use Smart Cut And Paste check box is
selected on the Advanced page of the Word Options dialog box. If you want to be able
to control the spacing yourself, click the Options button in the Backstage view, click
Advanced, clear this check box (located in the Cut, Copy, And Paste area), and then
click OK. - Scroll the page, and position the mouse pointer at the edge of the page to the left
of the first bullet point under Questions for Team Leaders. Then with the pointer
in the selection area, click to select the entire paragraph.
Tip Clicking once selects this paragraph because it is only one line long. If the paragraph
contained more than one line, you would need to double-click.
