Selecting text can be finicky because at times we may have a mouse that doesn't work so well or you may be like me and find that sometimes keyboard commands are faster than manipulating a mouse to do the work for us.
Here are some quick tips for MS Word 2007 and text selection.
WORD
Double-click on the word.

*this is good for applying formatting to various words in a document all at once rather than selecting them one at a time

then click on all other words you wish to choose.
LINE OF TEXT
Place your mouse at the beginning of the line...
hold down the SHIFT key...
press the END button.
