Actually BG, I don't think you're mental in this case. Because I get that too.

IF, I understand you correctly - Do you mean that your words keep getting re-ordered in your posts on NSC?

If I make a word italic, then keep typing, then switch back to normal about 4 seconds later the cursor moves back to that word, so the post gets all messed up. [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] have you seen that?

Turn the mouse pad off if your on a laptop should be F6

Bizarrely, for a BG/computer-thread.... this is the correct answer.

If you press too hard on the front of the keyboard on a laptop (especially cheap ones and lenovos!) you can trigger the mouse pad causing the cursor to jump around the screen. Disable the pad and use a wireless usb mouse instead.

Thanks that is probably the answer as it is a lenovo laptop. I was sure somebody posted a program to overcome this that could be downloaded, possibly last year, but I dont know the name or how to find it.

Pencil and Paper might be the answer.

How do I post on here with that? Posters on here would have nobody to slate or take the p..s out of.

You could write something, then scan it in to a pdf, then...... but I suppose that might get a bit too complicated.

And I'm a Grandad too, so I sympathise. I am sure it is all affectionate......

If not it is like water off a ducks back and I know I probably encourage the mickey taking so do not worry unduly and I have generally been given good advice on here cos whatever it is somebofy knows the answer.
