Something really annoying about Microsoft Word is that when I want to highlight text that spans beyond the boundaries of the screen, I have allow it to scroll by moving the mouse cursor to either the top or the bottom of the window. This is annoying because it always scrolls at a super high speed going through several pages in a second. How am I suppose to get it to the exact spot where I want the highlighted region to be? Is there a way to slow down the scrolling speed?

Assuming that you mean the speed the screen scrolls if you click and drag a section/selection... I don't exactly recall but I think there is an option that you can check/uncheck in Word that will give you an autoscroll tools+customize OVERRIDE
