Font setting issues

[confusedteacher]

My computer keeps changing font to what it wants and wont let me change it. When I try to change it, it just goes back to the old font. I can't highlight a block of text either and change it because it wont work. Is there a setting that I need to get rid of? I just want to be able to type and change blocks of text to whatever font that I want. Thanks.

Uncheck Match font with keyboard->Click OK
Quit Word from the Word menu->Launch Word to a new blank document
Try it now (use different fonts for examples)
