My cursor jumps to pointer location -- how to stop?

J

When I type a document, my cursor will suddenly jump (relocate) to where my
mouse pointer happens to be. That can be anywhere else in the document (the
part of the document showing on the screen). Thus I end up typing in the
wrong location of the document.

I have unselected "use smart cursoring" in Word's tools>options>edit, but
that has not solved this problem for me. Also, I cannot find anything at
Control Panel>mouse that is relevant. Any other suggestions?

My guess is you are using a laptop. You need to avoid touching the mouse pad.
