I can no longer select a block of text and then delete it for some reason. I
was getting the system message do you want to delete this block. Now I no
longer even get that. I can delete by cutting or backspacing. Any help is
appreciated.

Daiya, thanks. Unfortunately the typing replaces selection is checked.
