Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The keyboard shortcut Ctrl + A or the ribbon command Home>Select>Select All should both select all text.
John is correct.
However, be aware that anything in a text box or in headers/footers or in footnotes will not be selected.
Hello John K...
YES Thank You so much for that...
I could not find it on the ribbon but instead searched for it instead in the search field...
HOW do I find it on the ribbon...

It is on the far right side. There is a drop-dow for Select.
