Caption Dialog Box

[mrice]

In one particular document, the Caption Dialog Box does not work properly. The dialog box opens, but I cannot select the box/area to input the caption wording. "Figure" is selected and checked to appear as part of the caption; however, it does not show up in the box/area for the caption. I type the wording for the caption but nothing appreas in the box/area. Then, I hit enter, and the caption appears over or under the figure in the document as normal. What's going on?

It may be that the document has some form of corruption. Corrupt documents can often be 'repaired' by inserting a new, empty, paragraph at the very end, copying everything except that new paragraph to a new document based on the same template, closing the old document and saving the new one over it.
