Word 2004 formatting bug?

[slideshow]

Hi,

I recently bought Office 2004 (Student/Teacher Edition) for my Intel
MacBook (OSX 10.4.7) however I'm having problems with basic formatting
in Word.

For example, highlighting a word and then selecting bold makes the
whole document bold - I can correct the problem by using the undo
function, which leaves the selected text bold, and the rest of the
document returns to normal. It's the same with alignment, italic, etc.
Whenever I've used Word before, the formatting is applied to the
highlighted section - this must be a formatting bug, isn't it?

I've re-installed Office 2004, but still get the same problem - has
anyone got any tips/tricks to fix this problem.

Thanks in advance,

Dave
