Default Formatting (bold, italicize, underline, alignment) without selecti

hello, here's my problem.
in office 2000 i could format (say bolding) a word by simply placing the
flashing cursor in the middle of the word i wish to format w/o highlighting
or selecting the entire word. Now, i noticed in office 2003, you know have
to highlight the entire word inorder to format the word. please help. how
can i change the format style so that it bolds by cursor placement rather
than entire highlight/selection. thanks
