While typing in word whether email or a word document, the words I am typing
moves to another location, lots of times. It is extremely frustrating. It
has done it while I am typing this note. What causes it and what can be done?

I'm guessing that you're using a notebook with a touchpad, and
that you may also have a mouse attached to it. Sometimes when
you're typing, your thumb can get too close to a sensitive
touchpad, and that will move the insertion point to the wrong
place. You can disable the touchpad in Control Panel > Mouse >
Touchpad tab, and just use the mouse. Or if you don't want to use
a mouse, look for a setting on the Touchpad tab to make it less
sensitive.
