Scroll speed when selecting text

[Shawn Shuler]

Is there a way to slow the speed at which Word (and Excel)
scroll through pages when selecting text? For example, I
want to select a block of text that begins on the current
page and ends a couple of pages down. I place the cursor
at the bginning, hold the button down and drag to select.
Once the cursor reaches the end of the diplayed text the
whole thing takes off and I end up with 25 pages
highlighted. I try to go back and I end up slecting a few
pages back the other direction. This has become a real
problem since upgrading to a P4-2.8GHz. Is there a way to
slow this down a bit?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Shawn
