If this is on a Dell laptop, it is a fairly common problem for the cursor to
"wander" from time to time. It generalyy stops aftr several seconds, but is
annoying all the same.

If this is not the case, have you tried another mouse?

I know that this is not strictly an Office query but does anyone know how
to
stop my mouse wandering.
In all applications and even on the desktop screen my mouse moves in a
diagonal direction of its own accord and I cannot control its movement.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
