END KEY GOES PAST END OF LINE IN WORD 2003

 

 

 

When I am editing a document, and I am on the last line of a paragraph, I

 

press the end key. Usually it is supposed to take me to the end of the line,

 

to a point BEFORE the paragraph mark. I use this, for example, to add one

 

more sentence to the current paragraph, at the end.

 

 

 

However, in Word 2003 that I am using, about 75% of the time, when I press

 

the end key on the last line of the paragraph, the cursor goes PAST the

 

paragraph mark.

 

 

 

The other 25% of the time, it correctly goes to the end of the line, and

 

before the paragraph mark, so I can easily add another sentence to this

 

paragraph.

 

 

 

In fact, the cursor point PAST the end of paragraph mark is actually an

 

illegal point, because nothing should be typed past it. When I do start

 

typing, it does move the typed text to the next line (next paragraph).

 

 

 

So every time this overshoot happens, I have to press the back arrow key

 

after the end key to bring the cursor back to the end of the line, but just

 

before the paragraph mark.

 

 

 

I do not have this problem with any other edition of Word or any other word

 

processing program on this computer or ever.

 

 

 

It is a constant headache trying to constantly find out if the end key

 

overshot, and if so, bring it back 1 character before typing.

 

 

 

I tried to record the end key actions as a macro and the end key is

 

correctly mapped to the end of line.

 

 

 

Please help!!!!
