Text Selected with Mouse Jumps to Text Not Selected

Hi,

Has anyone else experienced this problem while working in the VB.Net code
behind:

when selecting text with the mouse, the text does not stay selected but
instead the selection jumps to the previous line of code and selects that
text; or when selecting part of the text on a line the selection jumps tot
he text on the same line that was not selected.

This prolem is causing me to modify or delete code that I did not select?
Does anyone know of this problem and if there is a fix for it?

Thanks!
