Skipping while writing
While writing in Word, the curser will skip to different
areas. When it skips to a sections already written, it will write into the previous section. I can't locate way to correct this in the tool options. This is very frustrating when writing large documents. Please help.

Skipping while writing
Is this a laptop? Keep your hands away from the touch pad while typing!

Cordless mouse, with low battery or a cellphone sitting on the receiver, can
behave like this too. "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ... Is this a laptop?

Skipping while writing
It can also be a virus.
I had a friend who had a virus that caused Word to type words on it's own. He would start typing, take his hands off the keyboard, and watch the cursor to continue to type random words. It was a virus, and very wierd. -----Original Message----- Is this a laptop?

That is commonly caused by speech recognition software.
