So I had a really annoying thing happen today with Word 2007. I was trying to work with a document and it would not let me select the text using my mouse. Hmmmm... thats weird?? So of course I do what any sane person would do... Reboot ;)
Well that didnt fix it (I thought maybe it was a result of docking/undocking without a restart)
After digging around a bit (Googling) I found out I was not the only one to have this problem. I am still not sure what caused it but was able to find a fix.
**** Use at your own risk *******
. Close Word and Outlook
2. Start / Run and type regedit
3. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Data
4. Rename this key.
5. Restart Word
That fixed the problem for me. Maybe when I have time, I will hunt down the actual reason for this but for now I need to use word ;)
