Standing has just as many detrimental affects as sitting does.. I used to work in a machine shop working a drill press all day and people i worked with had serious back issues, foot problems shoulder problems and if you were standing and typing that would make it practically impossible to get a correct ergonomic posture for your hands so that would be carpal tunnel syndrome soon enough i'm sure of it. Basically, you shouldn't be in ANY position for large chunks of time so get up, take a break, move around, get some fresh air, make a snack, get some water all these things will help your circulation and help you avoid problems like these.
