  There should be an “insert” button down at the bottom of the “paste from Word” popup window. Do you not see that? Pressing that should insert the text and the popup should close.

  I did that. The popup closed. Now the cursor is stuck inside the text box. When I click the return key it simply adds more empty lines inside the text box. The down arrow simply sits at the end of the final line of content inside the text box. I want to get out of the text box to add different content. Is this description more clear?

  I’ve noticed some wackiness in the editor as well lately.

  Try clicking the HTML tab and see if that sort of resets things. Then switch back to the visual tab.

  I’ve used the wrong term! I just realized I’ve been calling it a text box when actually, it’s a table: 3 columns and one row (with multiple lines of text in each column. I know tables are more complex beasts than text boxes! I’m sorry I gave you wrong information.
