Word 2007 Beta Tracked Changes issue

D

Dinasis

In the Beta 2 of Word 2007, with tracked changes on and with balloons turned
on and set to always, when changing a word, for instance changing "walked" to
"walking" by selecting the "ed" in order to replace just that portion of the
word, the word is marked as changed, but the cursor is moved to the beginning
of the word, rather than where it is supposed to stay. This problem is not
existant in Word 2003 and does not seem dependant on word length, as it
occured when I selected the letter "n" in "an" in order to change the word
into "a" and insert another word after it.

I've reproduced the problem exactly as you described it, and it's a
real bug (and a real doozy!). I submitted an official bug report, and
I'll post back here when I get a reply.

Thanks for helping!
