  I am using a 450 MHz machine with Win 98 and Office 2000.  As my 
machines have increased in speed over the years, it is becoming much 
harder to highlight a section of text which requires scrolling.  By 
"much harder" I mean almost imposible!  The scroll rate when holding 
the mouse button down and trying to move just a little bit beyond 
screen edge turns into a "no control over the highlighting" problem.
  I am talking about Word wrt this problem.  Other programs like 
Notepad do not evidence this overly fast scroll problem.
  Am I explaining this clearly enough?  Any ideas on what to set to 
slow down the scroll rate?  --Phil
