Is maybe the accursed Click & Type option is enabled? Check in Tools,
Options, Edit tab (towards the bottom). I hate it with a vengeance!

:I use two-column tables a lot in word, as I work in TV and we use them for
: scripts. On my home computer I have no problems. I can click the cursor on
: any box in the table withoutout highlight it.
:
: However, at the BBC where I work, there seems to be a bug in the system.
: Instead of the usual cursor which you get with boxes (which is not the
white
: arrow but a cursor with a straight vertical line) there's a horrible
little
: black arrow which appears.
:
: It behaves entirely differently from the cursor in my version of Word at
: home. Every time you move the mouse and click into a box it automatically
: highlights the entire box! Then you have to click the box again to
: un-highlight it. It drives me bonkers and the computer support people
can't
: help.
:
: Even the un-highlighting of a box is complicated. If you leave the black
: arrow outside a word then the box will stay resolutely highlighted when
you
: click it. Only if you position the black arrow over a word will it
: un-highlight the box.
:
: Can anyone help to get rid of the curse of the little black arrow?
