When I try to use the mouse pointer to place the cursor at
the end of a line of text in Word, it instead selects the
entire line of text. This problem seems to be related to
the following observation:

When using Word, if I keep the mouse pointer very close to
the end of a line of text it remains an "I"-shaped text
selection tool. But as soon as I move the mouse pointer
more than about half of a centimeter to the right of the
end of a line of text, it turns into an arrow-shaped
normal select tool. It is when the mouse pointer switches
over to a normal select tool that I have the problem
mentioned above.

This is killing me because every time I try to add
information to the end of a line of text I end up over-
writing the entire line and losing information. I tried
changing settings using the options button, but no luck.
Usually I am pretty good at customizing Word settings, but
this problem has me stumped. Any help would be much
appreciated.
