Thanks for your suggestion. That's certainly a possibility; however, I'm not touching the computer at all, and am pretty careful about touching the mouse's middle button. It seems that deleted text suddenly appears after a save or spellcheck, sometimes the same text in multiple locations, suggesting it may be happening by itself. I never see the text getting inserted, or the document scrolling to the insertion position, I just find it when I read through the document. -Dave
