You want to forward delete a word at a time?  If you use Word, you 
could use a macro
I wrote for that purpose.  I assigned it to the key combination    
Ctrl-Delete, but I expect you could assign
it to shift delete if you prefer.  it goes

Shift-Option-End
Delete

First put the cursor at the beginning of the word to be deleted.
