Page scrolling in Word 2007

When I reach the bottom of a page, Word typically scrolls down only one line
at a time, so I am constantly typing/reading at the bottom of the page.

At other times, the page view will abruptly shift a couple of paragraphs up,
although I can continue typing below the visible screen. I have to use the
scroll bars to go down to where I have been typing.

Is it my imagination, or did not older Word versions jump to a whole new
page when the bottom was reached?

How can I fix this? Very irritating.

Both problems may be related. Are you using a laptop computer with a
touchpad scrolling device?
