Sentence selecting is different in Word '03?

[Guest]

Prior to Word '03, I could CTRL+Click anywhere in the sentence to select it,
regardless of what was already/previously selected on the page.

Now, with Word '03, I have to click OFF of the previously selected
word/sentence/paragraph (to deselect it) before CTRL+Click will select a
sentence for me. If I don't deselect, CTRL+Click does nothing.

Is there a way to "put it back how it was"?

Thanks!

In Word 2002 and 2003, you can select discontiguous text by selecting, then
Ctrl+selecting, so yes, you must deselect already selected text if you want
Ctrl+click to select a paragraph.
