Default Word 2016 VBA editor problem

There is a problem in my VBA editor. When typing there appears to be an unwanted autocorrect action that deletes trailing spaces so that the next character I type follows on instead of being separated by a space. It occurs if there is a fraction of a second pause before typing the next character. At my one finger typing rate it occurs all the time.



It does not occur in the Excel 2016 VBA editor.

There doesn't seem to be a setting in Options to control this.

Has anyone got a solution?

Default Word VBA Editor Problem

I'm using Word from Office 365, but I think this cursor backspace issue in Word VBA has been around a long time. I found an old post that mentioned some COM Add-Ins, but I had none of them and still had the issue.



So I turned off all my COM Add-Ins under File-> Options then choose Add-ins on the left side and selected COM Add-ins under the Manage drop down box at the bottom of the panel. The VBA editor worked just fine, just as it does in Excel. I then proceeded to start enabling the Add-Ins it listed and found, for me, it was the Grammarly Office Add-In, which in retrospect, makes total sense, since it it checks for errors in real-time, no matter what window you have open for editing in Word.


The old posts mentioned other real-time Add-Ins such as VBA Code Cleaner and Smart Indenter, which I suppose could affect the Excel VBA editor as well.


In any case, look at your COM Add-Ins and check them one by one in the Word VBA Editor. It worked for me.
