No Mouse Control

[jbonham]

I am having the same problem (Word Professional 2007). No mouse
control. Cannot select Resourses using the keyboard either
(WordOptions.Resources). I am pure vanilla, no addins. I opened a
trouble ticket on this with Microsoft today. Don't understand the
statement "starting in admin mode". My user account is specified as
admin in Vista. I've even turned user control off. I tried running a
Repair using the Office CD. Still no luck. Last resort is to
uninstall and reinstall but that's drastic action. Any more
suggestions?

Turns out my app was not pure vanillia afterall. The culprit was an addin
(FlashPage) from Macromedia Studio 8. Removed the addins and I once again
had mouse control. Nice blog about the problem by Tim Anderson.
