How do I cancel delete block when editing an email?
 

For example: I am typing an email and I want to delete. I highlight the
word, paragraph or sentence by pressing the [Shift+Ctrl] key at the same time
and then press the left or right arrow to select the words to delete. At the
bottom left of my open window - it says "Delete Block? No (Yes)" I have to
then press the [Delete], and then press [Y] for it to delete the selected
words. I just want to be able to highlight the words and then press the
delete key. It used to be that way and then it changed to this somehow. I
am using Microsoft 2003 Outlook.

in an email message (or in Word since Word is your default email editor), go
to Tools, Options, and click on the General tab. Uncheck the option for
"Navigation keys for WordPerfect users".
