scrolling problem
Hi Jeff:
It's not a Word bug.
It does happen on laptops fitted with a touchpad that is configured to
accept a "double tap" instead of a "Left click".
If your finger slips on the touchpad, the system thinks you have clicked in
the document.
Hope this helps

I have a minor but annoying problem which may or may not be related to Word
itself.
I am using Word 2002 in a XP Home laptop. Very often when I scroll down a
document using the touchpad it will scroll to a certain point in the
document and refuse to go further down even there is still much more
document to go. If I click lower on that page scrolling resumes normally.
I've clicked on the "show/hide" button but can see nothing special about
where the scrolling stops.
This happens in many documents, not just one, and only seems to happen in
Word. Because this is a laptop I use the touchpad and cannot tell you
whether it would happen with a mouse. Clicking on the scroll bar works to
move down so it only involves using the touchpad to scroll.
Is this a Word bug or problem?
