1153757	2010-11-16 23:35:00	Have a table with 30 - 40 rows, decided to delete some of them. I can easily select/right-click and delete single rows, when I select multiple rows e.g 3, 5, 10, 15, word doesnt provide the option to delete them. The delete button fades out when multiple rows are selected. Any suggestion if this is possible? Thanks	ronyville (10611)

I can select 5 rows in together and am able to delete those, but if the rows are random than I cant delete it. Create a table with 10 rows and trying delete just 3 randoms ones togethter. See if that works for you.	ronyville (10611)
