Word 2007? Mouse problems are usually attributable to the mouse driver
software and especially intellitype software if installed. Check for updates and if necessary uninstall the latter. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org .. Randi wrote: My mouse dosen't work in the document, it does work on the ribbon |

I am having a similar problem. The thing is, the mouse is working with all
programs except Microsoft Word 2007. I cannot select text, but I can make selections from the ribbons. When I go to Word Options, I cannot select any of the options. This is happening on my laptop and I have tried both the built in mouse and a usb mouse. This is very frustrating - any ideas? I will try updating the drivers for the mouses, but the fact that they work with all other programs seems to negate that explanation. Thanks LMVA "Graham Mayor" wrote: Word 2007?

With Word and Outlook closed, locate and delete the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\W ord\Data If you don't know how to do that, see http://www.gmayor.com/Toolbars_in_word_2007.htm In the third illustration you will see the Data key seven items above the Options key subject of that page. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org lmva wrote: I am having a similar problem.

I had the same problem and your key deletion suggestion did the trick for me.
No driver issue, the problem cropped up after an automatic Vista update (Thanks, Microsoft ;D). I'll save this solution as a text file for future reference since this happened previously and I had to uninstall/reinstall to fix it.
