recently in another thread, I mentioned to someone that his problem sounded more like his function keys weren't working, rather than it being a WE specific problem.
Well, a day or two later, just as some sci-fi author describes a term he calls "synchronicity", I get a new keyboard at work, and it's function keys aren't working! It turns out, at least MS (and so I think others will do this), are making keyboards where the function keys have been assigned other duties (to start up various programs automatically). the keyboard now includes an extra key, to the right of F12, called F-lock, and it's used to switch the function keys back and forth between their standard function key values, and these new features MS has added to their keyboard. So, if it looks like your function keys aren't working, and you have a relatively new keyboard, and there seems to be a key immediately to the right of F12 as if it were F13, then try pressing this key, it just may be the F-lock key. hth, Chip If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
