Hi there, new to this forum but not new to word, I've got Office 2007 installed on a laptop running Vista, the programs all work fine except Word, when I open a document, saved or new the program appears to work fine, when I try to position the cursor in the document using the mouse, I can't.

The slider controls on the right are not working either, It has been working fine up to this point. The last thing I did before the problem occured was a word count.



Is it something I have changed on preferences or is it more serious. powerpoint and excel both work fine.

Hope there is someone out there who can help.

Do your computer have anti virus software?

Can you give a bit more information? As to what hardware you are running? What operating system are you running? I remmeber having a similar issue with Windows XP and I changed the Mouse to 97 compatabilty mode but that was with a Lenovo Desktop.
