This may be completely off the wall but I once had a user with a similar
problem in Word. He was using a laptop with one of those touch-pad thingys
below the space bar. Every so often, without noticing it he would hit the
touchpad and the cursor would jump to wherever the mouse pointer was sitting.
Any chance you could be doing the same thing?

Under certain circumstances (well most of the time), when I am typing,
the cursor goes backwards - e.g. typing
Dim lsString
then I can't get to type the space after Dim. It's not just the Dim
it's on - e.g. within a comment.

I've exported the text to notepad, created a clean spreadsheet and
reloaded, but it will start doing the same thing again

I am running Office 2003, but haven't put any service packs on yet
