I have been trying to help a friend of mine. On her computer, in MS
Word 2003, the "Home" key does not work - it does not send the cursor
to the beginning of the line. It does work properly in other
applications, just not in Word. I've tried going into
"Tools|Customize|Options|Keyboard" and there's nothing there to help.
I don't know where else to look. It seems like maybe there is
something, somewhere, to toggle it on and off. Help?

As a guess, your friend might have the WordPerfect Navigation option turned
on (in the Tools Options General dialog). This is a simulation of the
keys used in WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS; for example, pressing Home and then
the left arrow key takes you to the left end of the line.

Uncheck both options that mention WordPerfect.
