regarding your table qustion: If you change the file extension to CSV (Comma

Hi,
I recently started using MS Word 2013. Periodically it seems that the
cursor skips around the page rather than moving one line or character at a
time. I am using JFW16 latest and Windows 7. The document is in print
mode. I use the outline format for most of what I do in Word.
Any help
Thank you gentlemen, all 3 of you in fact. No doubt the answer I seek is in
