I hadn't when I got your message, as I was pretty sure it would be fine in
another user --  I am pretty sure the problem is isolated to just this
Entourage, as Shift h works in every other app on my Mac. But, to test, I
did log in as the other user and am happy to have shift h there -- but I
can't stay logged in as that user! :-)

So, let's see:

€No Shift h, but Caps Lock H works fine.

€Shift h produces nothing with a single tap of h, but if you  hold it down
the text cursor becomes a solid arrow pointer and then multiple repeating hs
show up.

€If I am in the "to" field when I try to type a Shift h, the name field
deactivates as if I'd hit return instead.

€Shift h works in every other app on my Mac (including other mail apps *and*
other Microsoft Office apps).

€Shift h does not work in Entourage with a different keyboard.

€This lack of shift h remains despite repeated reboots of the computer, a
Safe Boot, a compact of the Entourage database, and a five-hour Repair of
the database (done on two different days).

€Dumping every Entourage pref I could find did not help.

Thank you, Lew and Mark; does anyone have any other suggestions? It appears
that my shift h is mapped to something else in Entourage, but I can't figure
out how to undo it. No QuicKeys installed, and I looked in the Universal
Access pref pane in Mac OS to make sure that it hadn't been mapped there to
something else.

Mac OS X 10.3.9, Entourage 11.0.0. (I tried to update, but the assistant
failed with an Application Not Responding -- so my questions on what to do
with that remain, as well.)
