insertion point window

[Guest]

Whenever an insertion point window appears (the place where the tab is
flashing to enter information) I find that my mouse pointer must be held
within that window and not on some other part of the screen in order for the
input to begin. I'm pretty sure that the default allowed entry of characters
into that window no matter where the mouse pointer was on the screen.I
changed the default for this at some time in the past but I don't remember
how I did it. Can anyone advise?

Did you try the following solution:

Go to Control Panel
Double/single click Mouse, and this will open Mouse Properties window
Go to Pointer Options and click "Automatically move pointer to the default
button in a dialog box"
Click OK

Hope this works
