Hi, Debby, being cautious as a rule when it comes to computers, I don't want
to experiment in a way that will get me into a situation I can't get out of.
Causing the computer to crash is a definite no-no (grin). I'm also really
glad there is a cancel option for most things. Regards, Kim.

Hi Kim!

Stripping headers letter by letter would be mighty tedious, indeed.
Congratulations for experimenting and glad the selecting worked.
Experimenting is a good way to learn sometimes.  Just don't save if you have
second thoughts about something you are doing ever.  In that 
case, just close Word, decline its offer to save your changes   and reopen 
it and then load the file and find where you were working and continue your
work.  There have been times when I wish I had thought to not save too
hastily in my computing life, not just while proofreading.
