Hi Dennis,
Ability to drag and drop text has suddenly stopped working in Word 2003. The
drag and drop editing box is checked in Tools/Options/Edit.
Whenever this has come up in these groups during the last year or so, it's
turned out to be third-party software interfering with Word. If you start
Windows in "Safe Mode" can you drag-and-drop successfully?
