dragging text into google toolbar

[Shawna]

Hmm, I just installed it for the first time. I expected I
word be able to search by simply highting a word or phrase
and clicking the search button. Nope.

The Mariam Webster Dictionary toolbar works this way.

As for dragging into the text box, mine works well. I'm
glad you mention this because I didn't realize you can do
that.

My I suggest:
Reinstalling?
Are you highlighting the word prior to dragging?

Good luck,
Shawna
