Ah! The other text block was overlapping the one I was trying to delete - because it's way too big. Problem solved. Thanks to all. _______________________ Patience Gaydos Cook Dorigatti & Assoc.

You were right. I was, apparently using the text selection tool. I found the real Text Touch Up tool and tried that. It got me one step closer, however, it deleted far more text than I wanted it to. It looks like the header is a part of the same big text block as most of the other text on the page. Any further ideas? _______________________ Patience Gaydos Cook Dorigatti & Assoc.
