I have OOo 3.0.1 running under Windows XP and have an annoying little problem while using Draw to set out a club newsletter.

I am arranging the articles on each page of the newsletter in Text Boxes, some without borders and some with a continuous black line border, and it is working out well. As you know, after drawing your outline, you click on it a second time to get your text box, within which you type your content.

The problem I am having is that after clicking my way into the box and typing some information, and then exiting out again, maybe to go to properties and draw a line around the box, or adjust the margins or anchor point, or even go and edit text in an entirely different text box, when I come back in I often find: 1. I cannot locate the cursor where I want it - it is blinking somewhere else; or
2.  sometimes I cannot select text with the mouse;
3.  I cannot edit the text.

In other words, the text n the text box has become frozen or partly so.

to get out of this I have had to save my work; exit out of OOo; and then go back in an re-open the document, which is not a good situation to be in when you are busy.

Is 3.0.2 out yet?
If any of you have any advice or suggestions I would be obliged if you could help.

Many thanks, James.
