Hi there,
I have an issue with Office in that it is insisting that whenever I press '
(apostrophe), " (quotes) or ` (accent) etc, it assumes I am holding down
control and waits for me to press the next letter. It then displays a
special character, eg: if i press 'a I get the accented a. I then have to
hit backspace twice and then enter ' ' [Backspace] to get a single '. While
this is mildly irritating in Word documents, it becomes an absolute
nightmare when using VBA. Trying to do complex string concatenation is very
painful.
I have eliminated keyboard (this happens on my wifes logon, but not mine.
Using MS digital media pro).
I have checked through language settings and autocorrect; no joy.
Any suggestions appreciated.
MS Word 2003; Vista Hm Premium.
Cheers, Jason.
