Hey Alan,, first off, what OS are you using? We need to figure out how
you reset manually before setting up a F key solution with running a
script or macro (old fashion term)

XP
So if you have Windows XP then To open Regional and Language Options,
click Start, click Control Panel, click Date, Time, Language, and
Regional Options, and then click Regional and Language Options.

Did all that. At the moment shows up as expected,
English(Australia)-US.

PS

I did a bit of fiddling and eventually found a way to put
the little "language toolbar" on the top of the page. It was
strange. It stayed at "US" for the keyboard on all programs
(Word, Excel, Explorer, Firefox, OE etc) but as soon as I
opened Agent it switched to "United Kingdom". I reset it to
"US" three times after it did that - and now it seems to be
staying there.

We'll see after tomorrow's start-up.

The original problem was that inexplicably my keyboard's
language would switch from "US", which gives the @ sign for
shift-2 and the # sign for shift-4, and UK-English which
gives " and £ respectively, with the @ sign appearing as
shift-;.

I found the way to correct it, as mentioned above. Today I
just found what caused it. It happens any time that I happen
to hit both the left Ctrl and shift keys together. As I am a
lead-fingered typist that was at least once daily.

I've also found the right Ctrl and Shift keys combination
switches to United States-International, so I'll experiment
with that for a while.

Well, at least now I know why:-)


Cheers, Alan, T2, Australia.
