Can't use mouse during macro recording

[aioe.cjb.net]

I'm trying to record a macro in Word so that I can edit the resulting code.
I select the "Record Macro" button from the VB toolbar and recording starts.
Unfortunately, the mouse pointer has a little "cassette tape" icon on it and
I can't use the mouse in the program (can't right- ot lef-click, select,
position, etc.). The mouse works on the toolbar, and I can use the
keyboard, but this is tedious and gives me extra code.

Is there a way to restore the mouse's functionality during macro recording?

Thanks,
Bob
