First of all, version info might be helpful to know.

Second, is the file protected in any way?

Third, where are you trying to drag the text _to_? It has to be dropped into
an existing text line before you can effectively drop it.

I have drag and Drop Editing checked in the Tools Options Editing Tab.
I highlight text and try to move and get the BLACK Stop Symbology. Circle
with a line through it. The text never moves and it won't drag and Drop.
Never had a problem like this in any other version of Word.

Thanks.
