Default Drag and drop editing in a doc won't work - I get circle-slash cur

Suddenly Word 2003 has started this strange behavior. If I select a blcok of
text then try and drag and drop it within an open document the cursor becomes
a circle-slash and I cannot drop it anywhere. I can Ctrl-X and then Ctrl-V
the text, but I cannot drag and drop it.

ToolsOptionsEdit Drag and drop IS enabled. (turning that off only
disallows the cursor from grabbing the text, no circle-slash appears.)

How do I get rid if this incredible nuisance?

Thanks!

Charles
