If I had the data fill of "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog." and clicked my cursor after the "x" of "fox", I would, in doing so, end up selecting "The quick brown fox" instead of just being able to place the cursor after fox with the intention making a correction or insertion just after the "x" This is really irritating to people I set up forms for. Punching around Options does not seem to provide a way to turn off this "feature." Suggestions on how to do so? Much appreciated. Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
