Incidentally MS Word does this. If you try to type a sentence, say: pLEASE DON'T TURN OFF MY CAPS LOCK KEY, i WANT IT LIKE THIS. with the caps lock key on, it automatically turns off the caps lock key and converts it to: Please don't...etc. It's really annoying on occasions, occasionally useful but in general I think it's a bad idea to 'monkey' with stuff like this. -- james The information contained in this e-mail is intended for the recipient or entity to whom it is addressed.
