Yes, but in this case, the keyboard works fine except for the number pad with Rbase. If you use the numbers at the top of the keyboard (as opposed to the number pad to the right of the keyboard) the numbers go in fine. These are Compaq keyboards, and I have another computer at the same client office that is identical in every way but for the fact that the second computer has been upgraded to Windows 2000 and that computer has no problem. The system with ME also has no problem entering numbers with the keypad in other software (Excel, for example). It really does appear, by process of elimination, to be a conflict between Windows ME and Rbase. I've tried using a couple of other keyboards on the computer with ME....same problem
If not, it can't possibly hurt anything getting rid of the darned ME OS. I told them not to buy it in the first place.

I had used Northgate Keyboards (I bought several before N-Gate went out of business) because of the Left Side function key layout being so convenient for programming, but about the beginning of Pentium II chipsets, the keyboards would no longer work at all. It was a bios / chipset issue, not the OS. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paula Stuart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBG7-L Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 23, 2004 6:48 PM Subject: [RBG7-L] - RE: Quiet > You've got a mean streak Frank...... > > We could, but I might become unhinged (or as people who know me would > say, MORE unhinged).
