Is there ANY possible way to create a left-backspace key on the wireless keyboard, like a macro or something????? I am going crazy without it, and of course, the only solution I see is to buy the wired standard keyboard with the numeric keypad, which contains a left-backspace (left-delete) key.
 
If you hold down the fn key + delete key, that will delete the character(s) to the right of the cursor

No delete has been a major annoyance for me on a few occasions and I've had to use the on-screen keyboard.

Can't believe I've been using macs 5 years and this is the first time I've heard this, it's so simple, thanks!!:)
