The information in this article applies to:
SUMMARYIn Microsoft Word, if you press CTRL+SHIFT+F8 (Windows) or COMMAND+SHIFT+F8 (Macintosh) to select a column of text and then apply character formatting, the text does not remain selected after you apply the formatting. CAUSE
When you press CTRL+SHIFT+F8 (Windows) or COMMAND+SHIFT+F8 (Macintosh), the
Column Selection mode is activated, and you can use the arrow keys to
select a column of text. If you apply character formatting to the selected
text, the width of the characters changes. This can cause the column
selection to no longer be accurate. Therefore, the text selection is lost
when character formatting is applied.
