Mouse pointer does not work in 2007
Since installing Office 2007, when opening an 2003 or 2007 document the mouse
pointer does not work. To select anything on the document you must use the keyboard arrow key and then hold shift to select any thing on the document. How do we fix this? |

This is usually the symptom of a corrupt registry. From Start, Run
(Winkey+R) type in regedit and press enter. Navigate tot he Word DataKey and press delete. Word will automatically create new DataKey when it is next started.

I did this and it added a pointer line, but the mouse does not work. I can't
select anything on the document to highlight, delete or format. "Terry Farrell" wrote: This is usually the symptom of a corrupt registry. From Start, Run (Winkey+R) type in regedit and press enter.

What happens in Safe Mode: from Start, Run (Winkey+R), type in
winword /a and press enter. Can you edit fully now? Terry "ggant" wrote in message ... I did this and it added a pointer line, but the mouse does not work.

Yes, after entering Winword/ a it's fully functional. How to get the without
having to do this. Thanks! "Terry Farrell" wrote: What happens in Safe Mode: from Start, Run (Winkey+R), type in winword /a and press enter. Can you edit fully now? Terry "ggant" wrote in message ...

Safe Mode starts Word in its default install mode bypassing all
customisations, macros, templates and third party add-ins. So it suggests that you have installed a utility which has placed an add-in in Word and it is incompatible. You need to find it and then either get a compatible update or remove it. http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...sInstalled.htm http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...514521033.aspx -- Terry "ggant" wrote in message news Yes, after entering Winword/ a it's fully functional.
