Swype Keyboard problem

I have chosen Swype Keyboard for my input device in Settings. However, sometimes while typing (email/text), the keyboard disappears and I get a message saying the Samsung keyboard has quit. I close message, but then it reappears several times. When I check the Settings, I notice that the Keyboard is set back to "Default" even though I had set it to Swype.

What is causing this problem?

Thanks.

Pearson200,

Swype is an extremely convenient keyboard to use, so it's important that it works properly for you. There are several reasons devices will malfunction, but these types of issues are typically software/installed app related. So that we can better understand what's going on, we'd like to gather some additional information. What are you using on the device when you receive the keyboard error message? How long has this been happening? What changes were made to the device prior to this trouble starting?

The problem occurs when I am sending text messages. The problem is relatively recent. I have not downloaded any apps for awhile. Perhaps the most recent "change" is the Android update on 30 August.
