Highlight phrase won't drag and drop

Drag and drop is checked in tools/options/edit. But when I drag a word or
phrase, I get the little "can't do that" symbol.

Are you trying to drag it to an area of the document where there is not
already text, or outside the margins?

No, in the other text. But when I restarted and brought the document back up,
it is working now. Go figure.

Thanks so much for your help. I appreciate your time.
