SYMPTOMS
If you have a justified paragraph in a Word Processor document and you have turned on the Wrap For Window feature, you may be unable to select characters near the right edge of the window. The number of characters you will be unable to select depends on the font style and size.



RESOLUTION
To resolve the problem, do one of the following:


 * 1) Type a character in the justified paragraph.
 * 2) Resize the window.
 * 3) Reformat the document in any way.

-or-

Turn off Wrap for Window.

-or-

Use Page Layout view.



Steps to Reproduce Problem
The behavior described above is best reproduced on a VGA (640 x 480) display with the Zoom view set to 100 percent. If a higher resolution video display is used, increase the Zoom view (120-130 percent) to see the appropriate behavior.


 * 1) Create a new Word Processor document.
 * 2) Size the window narrower than the width of the right margin. (For example, make your right margin 1.25 inches and your window 3 inches wide.)
 * 3) Type one or more paragraphs of text.
 * 4) Highlight the first paragraph and from the Format menu choose Paragraph.
 * 5) Select the Indents And Alignment tab and click the Justified button. Choose the OK button.
 * 6) From the View menu, choose Wrap For Window.
 * 7) Try to select a character or click near the right edge of the window in the justified paragraph.
