Bet you're typing on a laptop. You're tapping the touchpad which is the same
as clicking the mouse.

I'm using Microsoft Word 2000, and when I type the insertion
point/flashing
cursor keeps relocating to where the pointer of my mouse is on the screen.
I
am not touching the mouse while this is happening. So if the mouse pointer
is
three lines above the line I'm writing, all of a sudden the cursor jumps
up
three lines, and I'm inserting words up there. I have to continually move
the
pointer below the line, so that when it jumps I only have to move the
cursor
a few spaces. It is extremely aggravating when writing long documents.

I know this is an older Word application, but any help would be GREATLY
appreciated.

Thanks, Josiah
