Default Word 2003: direction set by cursor is reversed. How do I reset?

Is a right-to-left script (Hebrew, Arabic, etc.) enabled on your
system? If it is, then there's a pair of buttons on the Home tab (I
don't know where they'd appear in Word2003) for reversing system
direction.

In a Word document (32 pages, created November 2009) direction of cursor is
exact opposite of that indicated by arrows: right goes left, up goes down,
Home goes End, etc. *I can't find any mention in Help of how to get make it
normal. *It's a right mess!

Does anyone know
1. *how to reset?
2. *if I have to re-create the document how to copy and paste so that the
reversed cursor is not transferred as well?
