I don't know, but I don't have any problem with this, either.

I have all those three things not checked and it still cannot select
exactly
what I want maybe the kword file is wrong?

I don't find this to be the case. I can select from the middle of a word
to
the middle of any word I try. I have unchecked "Use Smart Cursoring,"
"Use
Smart Paragraph selection," and "When selecting, automatically select
entire
word." Maybe you missed turning one of these off.

I do not like the way that Word jumps to select a whole paragraph, or
sentence or word. I have turned off the appropriate options in Edit.
However if I want to select 9.5 sentences in an 11 sentence paragraph,
Word
will jump to select the entire text. I know exactly what I want to
select, am
very accurate with the mouse and would really like a CTRL-Select
option or an
option in Edit to turn off the smart selection. If I select the middle
of a
word and go to the middle of word 2 pages later that's the exact text
I want
to select - not more or less. Can you fix this?
