Help - Vertical Scroll changes to Horizontal (Sideways scroll)

[Steve]

Hi,

I posted this question in the general question and didn't get an answer, so
I thought I'd try here.

I'm using office 2003 with sp3 and all the latest updates. Sometimes when
I'm in word and have a large document of many pages, the down scroll
(vertical) changes to side to side (horizontal). As I scroll up or down, it
scroll left and right. I've tried everything I can think of to change it
back, but can't find anything, the only way is to close the document and open
it.

I've also noticed that on large document, that the scroll won't scroll up
all the way, it stops at around line 4 or 5, if I click on the scroll bar and
move to the top, then the up and down scroll will change to left and right.

I’m assuming that this is a bug in the office. Any idea how to change the
vertical scroll back to horizontal when this happens?

Thanks for any info.

Steve

Hi Steve,

sorry, I cant give you an answer to your question, but I can give you
this.
I know the same problem. It occur irregular. Maybe it is really a bug.
I use Office 2003 SP1.

I'm also interested on a simple solution.

I also am experiencing horizontal scrolling when I use my mouse wheel to
scroll vertically.

I have O2K3 SP2.
