Hi, You can also turn off protected view within word. Alt-f, t, t, alt-t, p until you get to protected view and uncheck all options.

It's then when I lose focus. I happen to route the mouse to the bottom right and then move back up by clip to the Apply and OK buttons. But if you Alt-Tab away and back the dialog should have focus again and you should be able to tab around.
