Find and Replace box flies off screen!

[M Skabialka]

After problems with not being able to use Find and Replace in Word I
repaired my Office installation, then started up Word again and tried Edit,
Find. As I watched the Find dialog box flew over to the right and beyond my
screen width. Out of sight I could actually enter words to search for and
it would find them. Find and Replace does the same thing. After the first
time I open the dialog box and it disappears to the right, if I try to use
it again using Edit, Find, the menus in Word get greyed out as though the
find box is ready to be used.

How do I get the Find Dialog box to appear within the confines of my Word
window, or at least with my monitor screen boundaries. Maxing out my screen
resolution didn't help.

Thanks,
Mich

I finally fixed it! I booted into safe mode and was able to use the find
and replace options in Word. Then when I rebooted normally the dialog boxes
were back where they should be! What a waste of my time that was!
