I seem to be having some problems with Word 4.0

(1) In color, the selection cursor is often *way off*.  I select
between two characters, and the blinking cursor ends up almost an inch
to the right.  I start typing, and the characters insert where I
selected, not where the cursor is blinking.  This happens all the
time.

At one time, the last half of a line was shifted 1 inch right, past the
margin.  Luckily, things still kept working, so I assume word was just
having trouble keeping the screen accurate.

(2) A scarier problem just happened a moment ago.  I pasted something
into my document, and noticed I had two copies of the same paragraph.
Naturally, I deleted the extra copy, but this destroyed *both* copies
(perhaps the second copy was a phantom image on the screen).  Now
*THIS* caused me to loose two minutes' work, which is worrisome.

I have been working on the same file in both Word 3.01 AND Word 4.0.
I recently learned to use styles extensively (My 10 previous papers in
Word 3.01 didn't use styles).

Is there a bug-fixed version of Word 4.0 yet?
