Recommended for you

Type DBLCLKEDIT and set to 'on'.
 
Are you editing regular text and mtext, or text in a dimension? If it is in a dimension, it will always bring up the properties window. If you are not editing dimension text, I can't think of a reason at the moment, but I will see if I can find it.
