Default Insert comment without selecting a word?

In Word 2002, I could insert a comment anywhere, and the balloon was linked
to that cursor point. In Word 2003, it automatically selects the closest
"word" and highlights it. Is there any way to deselect that automatic
feature? Often, I merely want to make a comment, but I'd rather not highlight
a word or a sentence.

Most people regard that as an improvement. In Word 2002, comments inserted
at a point were difficult to see and did not display a ScreenTip.
