i've just installed office 2007 pro and started using word. when I started
typing on the first blank document that appeared, it said "selection locked"
and would not allow me to type. I exited and restarted Word and it seems to
be fine.

does anyone know what that means or why it happened?

I could also use some general feedback on how you feel about the new version
of Word, as well.
