When I am typing text in a Word 2000 document, after typing one or two sentences I get the bell sound and I can't type any more text. I find that the cursor has jumped to the top of the screen. I move the cursor back into the text block and I can continue typing for one or two sentences when it happens again. I also have this problem when typing text in email messages, but it doesn't happen as frequently. This problem just started about one month ago.
 
G'Day Hugh,
Are you, by any chance, hitting the ALT key by mistake.

Is this a laptop? Catching the touch pad with the heel of hour hand is a
frequent cause of this issue.

What happens if you brush the touchpad with the heel of the minute hand? <g>

G'Day (again) Hugh,
A long shot - do you have a graphics tablet (usually USB)
connected to your PC?
