Everyone:
 
I'm having a problem with Word 2000 that someone here
has probably come up against.  I've tried the
application help system, MS Knowledgebase, searching
on the web, and the TECHWR-L archives but found
nothing.
 
I deleted text in a document but then found out that
comments existed within that text area.  Now, when I
look at the View Comments window, those comments show
up.  I would like to delete the old comments. 
However, they won't delete.  I'm assuming this is
because there is no "hook" within the text to
right-click and click Delete Comment. 
 
I am not able to delete the comments through the View
Comments window either.  I tried both a right-click
method (no menu items showed up) and just trying to
delete the comment by selecting and deleting.  Neither
worked.
 
Any thoughts on what to do about these orphan
comments?
 
Thanks in advance.  The last hour or so has been
rather maddening....
 
Faith Wallis
