Tools; Options; click the + sign at OpenOffice.org Writer to drop down 
the list.
Cick/select Formatting Aids, new data shows in right side pane.
Right hand column: Notice 'Direct cursor' heading.
   Tick "Direct Cursor"
   I have 'Tabs and spaces' ticked right now but your preference may be 
different.  Experiment, try the Help button if you wish.
   Note there is also a "Curor in protected areas" box you can tick.  I 
have it ticked, you may not want it.  Rather than try to explain, it's 
better IMO to tell you to read HELP and experiment.  Explaining could 
take a LOT of words<g>.

Any help there?
