Author Cannot resize a text box. - Undo Load Place Cursor?
Wade Eyre

I am a bit perplexed and I am hoping someone might be able to help out here.

I am using Illustrator CS 11.00 and attempting to create a flyer. In my
previous attempts to create a text box and then resize it if it was too big
I had no problem. Now for some reason when I create a text box, enter all
my text and then try to resize by clicking on a specific side of the window,
I get a very strange action. It seems as if I am doing something without
even trying. The two undo messages I get are as follows:
- Undo Load Place Cursor.
- Undo Link Threaded Text and

What I am attempting to do is create a box, enter my text and then resize
the box sides to accommodate the placement of the box. I have tried the
"Free Transform Tool" but that changes the size of my text which I don't
wish to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers and Regards,
Wade
