why dont shift+arrow or ctrl+arrow work in 2007
 

In office 2003, moving objects (drawings, txt boxes..etc.) over small (pixel)
increments worked fine with ctrl+arrow. Using 2007 I am having problems using
the ctrl+arrows or the shift+arrow functions (for constrained movement).
Besides, it is sometimes very hard to draw a straight line especially when
you try to extend it. Does anyone know what might be the reaonfor that?

I don't find that moving objects with the cursor keys is much different than
in Excel 2003. Moving pictures seems a lot more sluggish but shapes,
textboxes, etc., are the same. No need to use the Ctrl key with the cursor
keys, btw, but this was true before.
