why is my computer cursor loaded with lines next to it? wilsonmarla 6/29/2007 1:22:00 AM when I move my mouse over a document it loads with a set of horizontal lines nest to it. What is this or how do I unload it into readable text?

The lines indicate that if you double-click at that spot the text you type there will be left-aligned, centered, or right-aligned. Disable "Click and type" (which is discouraged except for quick-and-dirty fliers and the like) on the Edit tab of Tools | Options. -- Suzanne S.
