Deleting

[Marie]

How do you delete to the end of a many page document without having to
highlight the entire pages that need to be deleted. I am looking for a
faster method. Perhaps the "F8" might work, but I am not sure how to use
that.

Thanks!

Place cursor at beginning of section of delete. Scroll to the end of the
document. Then hold down shift before you click, and it will highlight
everything between the old cursor location and the new shift-click
location. Hit delete.

By the way, this is a Mac Word group, so if you are not on a Mac, try
this portal in the future:

Another option:

Place the insertion point at the start of what you want to select then key
Shift+Command+End to select from there to the end of the doc (you'll need to
include the fn key if on a laptop).

If Daiya's guess is right & you're using a PC, the stroke would be
Shift+Control+End.
