RS v3.1 and Word

I have inherited a number of reports that are used for open enrollment. They have a section that are edited in MS Word. We are using Win2K as the OS, MS Word 2K SR1, and RS v3.1. When I edit the word section and exit the text box, the font and the text box immediately shrink down to a much smaller version. I try to resize using the handles, but the font screws up. I tried copying the data to Word, making the changes and then copying back. I still get the problem where the font and box shrink. I don't have time to re-write these and we are going to Crystal in a few months. So, I need some help now! Does anyone have any ideas of anything I can try????
