Loss of both right & left mouse button functions in Word only

[Henri Monnier]

This is a strange one (I think)...

For some unknown reason in Word (all other products are OK, PowerPoint,
Publisher, Excel, etc.) both the right and left mouse buttons have stopped
working in the 'text' portion of the screen. The buttons function properly in
the 'menu' area of the screen. The scroll wheel works fine, so the only way
to position the cursor in the text portion of the screen is through the use
of the keyboard 'arrows'...

I've not loaded, or unloaded any software, and the mouse fully functions
with all other apps (PhotoShop, DreamWeaver, etc.) and now while entering
this message....

Looking forward to a fix.....
