Arthur: I'd say a repair or reinstall is the fastest fix. But you should be able to run more than one version of Office on the same box. They just have to be installed in order (like 2003 before 2007). Do you have to use 2007? Or can you just go back to 2003?

The mouse wheel works but the scrollbar does not. 2.Something bizarre happens (or actually doesn't happen) when I single- or double-click the mouse somewhere in a document. I'm used to single-clicking to place the cursor in a document, and double-click to select a word, and right-click to check spelling etc. None of these techniques work. This is intolerable. This behavior does not show up in other Office 200y applications. I have already applied the service pack, to no avail. Oh, one more thing. Every time I exit Word, it crashes. At some point, I got a message to the effect of "Word has crashed several times in a row. Do you want to run Diagnostics?" I said OK and everything was OK but it recommended that I update Office so I did, but the behavior persists. Am I the only one with these problems? Sadly, the version of Office 2007 that I have insists upon deleting any previous version, so my choices are rollback or live with it, apparently.
