how do I stop the format text box from popping up

[Wendy R]

Every time I try to move or resize a text box, the format text box keeps
popping up and making it almost impossible to do what I want.

It sounds like you're double-clicking the edge of the Text Box -
accidentally if not intentionally. There isn't a setting that would cause
that behavior.

Try just a click& hold to drag the box, or click more slowly (once to
select, once to grab a handle) to resize. You may also want to check your
Windows Mouse Control Panel settings to make sure the double-click speed
isn't set too slow for you.
