I can't backspace or type any letters or numerals in a word document but the
keyboard works fine in excel, etc.
 
If this happens in new, blank documents, exit Word and rename the normal.dot
file (normal.dotm if you are using Word 2007). To find the file, you can
search for it in Windows; be sure to search hidden files and folders.

If this happens with a particular document, only, it might be protected or
possibly corrupt.
