Delete Key using VISTA

[Jerry and Jennifer Wolfenbarger]

Ok folks here is a what sounds like a stupid question. We just picked up a
new lap top and it came loaded with VISTA. One very annoying item that I
have come across is the lack of ability to use the delete and or back space
key without moving the cursor first. Any idea how to fix this issue.

Thanks

Tab key? You always somehow have to select what you are going to delete.
Maybe I am not sure what you are saying. Same thing with backspace. You have
to be somewhere first.
