Are you sure it's the first letter? It's not preceded by a space or tab or
anything else?

I am having some trouble using the drop cap option in Word 2002. I have
highlighted the first letter of the first word of the paragraph, clicked
format and cannot go any further because the drop cap command is not
available (greyed out). Any ideas of how to get this working?
